Gastrointestinal Parasites in Humans and Rhesus Macaques: A Cross-Sectional Study in Bhaktapur, Nepal.

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 and Aims: Gastrointestinal parasitism in wild animals at the human-wildlife interface may be a warning concern both for wildlife health and human health. The current study was conducted to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in humans and rhesus macaques ( Methods: A total of 200 fecal samples ( Results: The prevalence of intestinal parasites was 13% among humans and 81% among macaques. In humans, the identified parasites included protozoa, such as Conclusion: The study reported a significantly greater prevalence and diversity of gastrointestinal parasites in macaques than in humans. Since a few species are implicated in zoonoses, the study highlights the need for a health awareness campaign and management of the macaque population in the study area. Additionally, public education, appropriate waste management near the temples, and controlled feeding to macaques must be implemented to reduce parasitism and spillover risks to humans.
