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

importanceChiggers are the exclusive vector of scrub typhus. Jinping County, located along the China-Vietnam border in southwest China, is a focus of scrub typhus. It is of medical and veterinary importance to study chiggers in this area.

objectiveThe present study made a retrospective analysis aiming to report chiggers on small mammals (hosts) in Jinping County on the China-Vietnam border, Yunnan of southwest China.

methodsThe indexes of chigger infestation and chigger community were routinely calculated. The niche width and overlap were calculated for analyzing chiggers' host selection. The sample completeness was determined through coverage index (CI).

resultsA total of 7,718 chiggers from 274 small mammal hosts were identified as 52 species, 10 genera, three subfamilies and two families, including nine vector species. The CI of chigger species reached 99.84%. The genus CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: The abundant
