Rickettsia tillamookensis-like strain in brown dog ticks in Brazil.
Article in Parasites & vectors, 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
Brown dog ticks (Rhipicephalus linnaei) collected from dogs in northeastern Brazil in 2015 tested positive for a rickettsial organism phylogenetically related to Rickettsia tillamookensis (referred to as R. tillamookensis-like). One of the dogs with R. tillamookensis-like-positive ticks tested positive for IgG antibodies to Rickettsia rickettsii antigens, suggesting a potential reaction to spotted fever group rickettsiae. Future research should assess whether the rickettsia detected herein is R. tillamookensis or a closely related species, its distribution, potential vectors, and possible pathogenicity to humans.
