Seroprevalence, spatial clustering, and gender-associated risk factors of porcine cysticercosis in backyard pigs from the high Andean region of Perú: A One Health approach.
Article in Veterinary world, 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 Ai: Porcine cysticercosis caused by Materials and Methods: A quantitative, observational, analytical, cross-sectional study was carried out from April to December 2024. Blood samples were collected from 245 backyard pigs across 49 households and tested for anti- Result: The overall seroprevalence of porcine cysticercosis was 14.7% (36/245; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 10.1-19.3). Significant spatial clustering was seen, with the Checche locality showing the highest seroprevalence at 60% (p < 0.01), indicating a hyperendemic micro-focus. Univariate analysis revealed associations between porcine cysticercosis and the pig owner's sex (p < 0.05) as well as awareness that humans can be infected (p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression identified only the pig owner's sex as an independent risk factor, with pigs raised by women having higher odds of infection (Odds ratio = 3.2; 95%CI: 1.3-8.2; p = 0.015). No significant links were found with pig-level characteristics. Conclusio: This study offers the first combined serological and geospatial assessment of porcine cysticercosis in the José María Arguedas district. The results reveal moderate endemicity, localized transmission hotspots, and an important gender aspect in disease risk. Combining EITB diagnostics with GIS-based mapping within a One Health framework provides a scalable surveillance model to support targeted interventions, health education, especially among women farmers, and sanitation improvements in high-risk Andean areas.
