Molecular Survey and Phylogenetic Analyses of Canine Hemoplasma Species in Different Parts of Türkiye.
Article in Acta parasitologica, 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
purposeCanine hemoplasma species, Mycoplasma haemocanis and Candidatus Mycoplasma haematoparvum, have been identified in various parts of the world. These pathogens can lead to mild to severe infections, even death, in dogs. To date, several pathogens caused clinical infection in dog have been detected in Türkiye, but limited data are present about canine hemoplasma species in the country. The aim of this study was to investigate canine hemoplasma species in different parts of Türkiye, and to perform phylogenetic analyses of positive samples.
methodsIn the current work, 300 dog blood samples were obtained from different parts of Türkiye. DNA extraction was obtained from blood samples with a commercial kit. The obtained DNA was researched in terms of the presence of canine hemoplasma species with species-specific PCR assay. Partial parts of 16S rRNA gene of randomly selected six samples, three positive samples for each pathogen, were sequenced.
resultsPCR assay revealed that 3.67% of animals (11/300) were infected with canine hemoplasma species. The prevalence of M. haemocanis and Ca. Mycoplasma haematoparvum was determined as 2% (6/300) and 0.67% (2/300), respectively. Co-infection rate was 1% (3/300). After DNA sequence analyses obtained consensus sequences were uploaded to the GenBank under accession numbers: PV798019-PV798021 (M. haemocanis) and PV798022-PV798024 (Ca. Mycoplasma haematoparvum). BLAST analysis revealed 98.44-100% nucleotide similarity between M. haemocanis isolates identified in this work and other M. haemocanis isolates. The 97.41-100% nucleotide identities were seen between our Ca. Mycoplasma haematoparvum isolates and other Ca. Mycoplasma haematoparvum isolates present in the GenBank.
conclusionConsidering that these two species may cause clinical infection in both animals and humans, it is thought that veterinarians and physicians living in the region should take the necessary precautions to reduce the harmful effects of M. haemocanis and Ca. Mycoplasma haematoparvum.
