1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Parasitic nematodes within Onchocercidae are a diverse group transmitted by hematophagous arthropods. This study investigated the molecular occurrence of filarioid nematodes in 93 wild mammals from the Amazon, Cerrado and Pantanal biomes in Brazil, based on the analysis of the mitochondrial genes 12S ribosomal DNA gene (12S rDNA) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (COI). Conventional polymerase chain reaction (cPCR) targeting the 12S rDNA gene yielded positive results in 14·44% (13/93) of the samples, including 9·86% of jaguars (7/71), 50% of pumas (1/2), 12·5% of giant anteaters (1/8), 50% of ocelots (1/2) and 60% of crab-eating foxes (3/5). Among the 12S-positive samples, 46% (6/13) also tested positive for the COI gene; however, only 1 sequence was suitable for further analysis. Phylogenetic analyses based on 12S gene sequences revealed 4 distinct lineages within the family Onchocercidae. Groups Ia and Ib, composed of Cerrado and Pantanal sequences from jaguars, formed sister clades to
