Geographical distribution of phlebotomine sandflies (Diptera: Psychodidae) in southern Uzbekistan.

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
Phlebotomine sandflies, important vectors of leishmaniasis, were surveyed between 2020 and 2023 in 4 southern regions of Uzbekistan-Surkhandarya, Kashkadarya, Jizzakh, and Samarkand-where human cases have been reported. A total of 2,905 specimens were collected and identified, representing 9 species from 2 genera: Phlebotomus (P. papatasi, P. sergenti, P. longiductus, P. caucasicus, P. mongolensis, P. andrejevi, P. alexandri) and Sergentomyia (S. sogdiana, S. grecovi). Sandfly abundance was highest in Kashkadarya (43.0%, n=1,249), followed by Surkhandarya (33.7%, n=979), Jizzakh (12.7%, n=369), and Samarkand (10.6%, n=308). P. sergenti was the most frequently detected species, predominating in Jizzakh (68.8%), Samarkand (63.3%), and Surkhandarya (42.1%), while P. papatasi was also prevalent, particularly in Kashkadarya (26.4%) and Surkhandarya (38.6%). In contrast, P. longiductus, P. alexandri, and S. grecovi were detected at relatively low frequencies.. These findings provide critical baseline data on sandfly species composition and regional distribution, which are essential for developing effective surveillance and control strategies to prevent cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis in Uzbekistan.
