Neglected tropical diseases elimination activities in South Sudan's largest refugee camp: lessons from 2 years of work.
Article in International health, 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
Maban County, home to South Sudan's largest refugee camps, faces complex health and humanitarian challenges and is co-endemic for lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis. The division into two Implementation Units, one for the host community and the other one for the refugee camps, as recommended by the WHO Expanded Special Project for Elimination of Neglected Tropical Diseases (ESPEN), has improved the visibility of the refugee population, ensuring tailored planning and equitable inclusion in all stages of treatment delivery. Conducting mass drug administration campaigns in refugee camps requires strong coordination among multiple stakeholders and tailored training for frequently changing personnel, but benefits from the camps' structured layout, which enhances efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Morbidity management and disability prevention for lymphoedema and hydrocele were implemented for the first time in a refugee setting in South Sudan, highlighting the need for strong non-governmental organisation coordination and a national framework to standardise and reduce the cost of hydrocele surgery. Lessons from displacement-affected areas can guide inclusive strategies to ensure conflict-affected communities are not left behind in achieving WHO 2030 neglected tropical disease targets.
