First Serological Evidence of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Infections in Croatia: A Multispecies Surveillance Approach Emphasising the Role of Sentinel Hosts.

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
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a tick-borne zoonotic pathogen of growing public health concern in southeastern Europe. This study provides the first serological evidence of CCHFV circulation in Croatia, based on testing 1473 serum samples from farm and companion animals, including sheep, horses, cattle, goats, dogs, and cats. A total of 109 samples (7.4%) tested positive for CCHFV antibodies using a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. The highest seroprevalence was recorded in sheep (28.3%), followed by horses (4.3%) and a single cat (0.5%), with no antibodies detected in cattle, goats, or dogs. Almost all seropositive animals originated from coastal and subcoastal Croatia, where
