Bovine Lungworm: Prevalence and Associated Risk Factors in Haramaya Town, Ethiopia.
Article in Journal of parasitology research, 2026. 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: Lungworm infection, caused by a nematode parasite, leads to bronchitis or pneumonia, high-mortality rates in cattle, and significant economic losses. Objectives: This study is aimed at assessing the prevalence of bovine lungworm and identify potential risk factors in Haramaya town, Ethiopia. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed from December 2023 to April 2024, with animals selected using a simple random sampling method. Prevalence and associated risk factors were analyzed using chi-square and logistic regression tests in Stata Version 17. Results: A total of 384 cattle fecal samples were collected and analyzed in the Haramaya veterinary parasitology laboratory for larvae identification. Of these samples, 16 (4.2%) tested positive for lungworm infection. Logistic regression analysis showed a statistically significant association between the disease and factors such as age, body condition, and management systems ( Conclusions: The relatively low prevalence of bovine lungworm in this region carries notable economic consequences. To mitigate these impacts, preventive measures such as vaccination and deworming should be implemented.
