Container Mosquito Abundance in Brooklyn Community Gardens.
Article in EcoHealth, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Community gardens in urban Brooklyn, New York are social spaces that provide food sovereignty to many New Yorkers, but the arrival of the mosquito Aedes albopictus and longtime presence of Culex pipiens makes socializing in these spaces more dangerous. Ae. albopictus is associated with several mosquito-borne diseases including dengue fever, Zika virus, and chikungunya virus while Cx. pipiens is a longtime vector of West Nile virus. Since Ae. albopictus and Cx. pipiens both breed in human-made plastic containers, knowledge of their preferred container types and locations could aid best management practices for community gardeners. This research looked at the abundance and genera of mosquito larvae in 22 Brooklyn community gardens to understand the breeding habits and survivability of these mosquitoes. This research found that non-purposeful container types and lower total volumes of water were significant predictors of higher mosquito densities, but these variables did not predict egg laying preference.
