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
objectivesThis study investigates the relationship between hydrometeorological factors and leptospirosis cases in Central Java to elucidate disease spread patterns.
methodsAn ecological study design was utilized, incorporating spatial elements by integrating geographic information systems (GIS) with statistical techniques. The analysis included data on temperature, humidity, rainfall, solar radiation, flooding, and monthly leptospirosis cases recorded from 2018 to 2022. Data sources comprised the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, the Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency, and the Central Java Provincial Water Resources Management Center. The study employed correlation tests, multiple linear regression, and spatial data visualization.
resultsCorrelation analysis indicated that monthly leptospirosis cases were significantly and positively correlated with minimum temperature (r=0.423; p=0.001), humidity (r=0.589; p<0.001), and rainfall (r=0.413; p=0.001). In contrast, maximum temperature (r=-0.355; p=0.005) and solar radiation (r=-0.431; p=0.001) showed significant negative correlations. Subsequent multiple linear regression showed that higher monthly leptospirosis was associated with higher humidity.
conclusionsThe findings offer essential insights for developing a comprehensive, science-based leptospirosis management strategy. A recommended approach is to establish a spatial monitoring system aimed at identifying high-risk areas, especially those with increased humidity and frequent flooding.
