VirPhyKit: An Integrated Toolkit for Viral Phylogeographic Analysis.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The evolutionary, demographic, and phylogeographic histories of viral pathogens can be inferred from their genomic sequence data. Bayesian phylogeographic approaches, for example, can be used to reconstruct the spatial dynamics of pathogen transmission. Although a range of tools is available for evolutionary analyses of viral pathogens, these typically focus on specific stages of the workflow, leaving a need for an integrated framework. We introduce VirPhyKit, a toolkit that integrates 12 specialized modules through an intuitive point-and-click interface. VirPhyKit streamlines key tasks in phylogeographic analysis, including sequence curation, spatiotemporal subsampling, migration pattern analysis, and molecular dating. Furthermore, it offers built-in functionality to generate high-quality figures that are suitable for publication. As a stand-alone application supported on Windows and Linux operating systems, VirPhyKit promises to be a valuable resource for researchers studying viral ecology and evolution. The software and source code are available at https://github.com/BioEasy/VirPhyKit.
