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

Background: Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL), caused by Methods: Overall, 93 canine serum samples were collected from endemic and non-endemic areas of CVL in Iran. Rabbit anti-canine antibodies were conjugated with gold nanoparticles, and strips were coated with Results: A sensitivity of 82.5% (CI 95%.78.1-86.9) and specificity of 90.5% (CI 95%. 87.7-92.5) were found at a 1:320 cut off titer when DAT confirmed cases were compared with negative control. The agreement (0. 871) was found between ICT and DAT using kappa analysis. Conclusion: A relatively good agreement was found between ICT and DAT. Further researches on test validation with larger populations in endemic and non-endemic areas of CVL, is recommended.
