Bird Community Composition, Migration, and Environmental Factors Jointly Influence the Global Distribution of Avian Haemosporidian Lineages.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Parasite distributions are under the influence of host occurrence and tolerable environmental conditions. In vector-borne disease systems, including avian malaria, they are further constrained by the environmental niche of the vectors. The fact that avian haemosporidians occur in a large number of migratory and non-migratory species means the role of bird migration in the global distribution of avian haemosporidians is an open question. Because avian haemosporidians refer to a large number of genetic lineages that are well characterized in terms of host and geographic range, we introduce an ecoregion pairwise analysis that sets out to explain the similarity in lineages in pairs of ecoregions as a function of the pair's similarity in migratory and non-migratory bird communities, as well as environmental conditions. We identify important roles for each of these factors in explaining the overall geographic distribution of lineages, including strong support for the role of migratory birds in moving lineages between environmentally dissimilar ecoregions.
