Prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites and their associated risk factors in sheep raised at high and low altitudes in Swat, Pakistan.
Article in Open veterinary journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Gastrointestinal tract parasites (GIT) pose a significant economic constraint and public health challenges worldwide, including in Pakistan. Aim: This study was conducted to assess the effect of the prevalence and associated risk factors on the prevalence of GIT parasites found in sheep of lower and higher altitudes in the district of Swat, Pakistan. Methods: Fecal samples from the rectum were collected by means of gloved fingers and then placed in plastic bottles containing 70% ethanol. The collected fecal specimens were transported to the parasitology laboratory of Malakand University in the Zoology Department for investigating gastrointestinal parasites. General laboratory techniques were applied to detect parasitic infections. Results: Of the 300 fecal samples, 90.4% ( Conclusion: The current study evidenced higher rates of helminth parasitic infection that can be prevented by ensuring antihelminthic treatments for the sheep population at different intervals.
