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
Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is a zoonotic disease whose etiological agent is transmitted by phlebotomine sand flies, with dogs as the primary reservoir. Urbanization and deforestation have created conditions favorable to pathogen transmission. In Eunápolis, Bahia, the epidemiological situation of CVL remains entirely unknown. In this study, the prevalence of CVL and its associated socio-environmental factors were investigated. A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 243 dogs residing in both urban and rural areas. Blood samples were analyzed using the rKDDR-plus immunochromatographic test, conventional polymerase chain reaction (cPCR), and quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). In addition, household questionnaires were administered to assess socio-environmental conditions. Based on the rKDDR-plus serology, four samples tested positive (1.6%), and qPCR confirmed the presence of Leishmania infantum DNA in three samples (1.2%). Among the environmental factors analyzed, improper waste management (38.3%) and proximity of households to vegetation (54.7%) were notable. The detection of seropositive samples and L. infantum DNA suggests the existence of a transmission cycle of canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) in the studied area. In this context, public health measures, including vector control, health education initiatives, and responsible pet ownership, are essential to mitigate risks and prevent the spread of the disease.
