Molecular Detection and Genetic Diversity of Measles and Parainfluenza Viruses Circulating in Humans in Bangladesh: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Health science reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 and Aims: Among Paramyxoviruses (PMVs), measles virus (MeV) and human parainfluenza virus (HPIV) are major contributors to respiratory tract infections worldwide. Despite recurrent outbreaks of MeV and the significant health impact of HPIV, data on their molecular epidemiology and genetic diversity in Bangladesh remain scarce. This study aimed to detect and genetically characterize circulating MeV and HPIV strains among humans to better understand their distribution and genetic diversity. Methods: We conducted this study as part of Global One Health Surveillance between 2017 and 2019 across three communities and one hospital in Bangladesh. We enrolled community participants, who had the potential to harbor viruses, and hospital participants with Influenza-like illness (ILI). Survey data and biological specimens were collected to assess behavioral risk factors and virus spillovers. Samples were tested using consensus PCR, targeting the polymerase ( Results: Overall PMV prevalence was 1.2% ( Conclusion: Our study provides molecular characterization of the circulation of diverse MeV and HPIV strains in humans across Bangladesh. Despite their endemicity, continued surveillance concerning vaccination coverage and genome sequencing is recommended to better understand the spatiotemporal dynamics of these key respiratory viruses in humans.
