1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: Although toxocariasis has been listed among the five most neglected parasitic infections worldwide, with higher impact in socioeconomically vulnerable populations, no study has evaluated vulnerable individuals from highly populated urban areas. Methods: Accordingly, human serum samples were collected in Curitiba, the eighth most populated metropolitan area of Brazil, and tested by indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for anti- Results: Overall, 58 of 132 (43.9%) (95% CI: 35.8-52.5%) human samples were seropositive for Discussion: Although age over 53 years was the only predictor in the final logistic regression model, the spatial overlap between asymptomatic seropositive individuals and areas of high environmental vulnerability-marked by low income, flooding, and poor sanitation-was critical. These conditions likely facilitated the
