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

Rapid urbanization and dense populations in metropolitan areas increase the risk of tick-borne disease transmission. We profiled 139 RNA libraries of 1697 adult ticks belonging to Haemaphysalis longicornis, Haemaphysalis concinna, Dermacentor silvarum, Dermacentor sinicus, and Rhipicephalus sanguineus, field-collected in the Hebei region. Among 179 viral species, four human pathogens (a novel Bandavirus dabieense genotype, Orthonairovirus nairobiense, Thogotovirus thogotoense, and Xue-Cheng virus) were identified, highlighting potential emerging tick-borne disease threats. Four viruses infecting animals (Lagovirus europaeus, Ovine parvovirus, canine parvovirus, and Psittaciform Parvoviridae sp.) were discovered for the first time in ticks, suggesting the role of ticks as a potential reservoir. Hebei bunya-like virus 1, Dandong tick virus 1, and Zhejiang mosquito virus 3 were genetically closely related to mosquito-associated viruses, suggesting a potential transmission route for these viruses through both mosquitoes and ticks. The diverse tick virome in metropolitan surroundings contained potential human and animal pathogens, highlighting the need for proactive surveillance of emerging tick-borne viruses.
