Detection by PCR of Borrelia theileri in ticks and anti-rGlpQ antibodies in cattle from Guanajuato, Mexico.
Article in Veterinary research communications, 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
Bovine borreliosis is caused by Borrelia theileri, it is rarely reported, and it has a worldwide distribution, but its circulation in Mexico is poorly studied. In this report, a retrospective serological analysis of 100 bovine sera from the state of Guanajuato to detect exposure to Borrelia sp. was performed by Western blot for the detection of antibodies against the recombinant proteins rGlpQ and three versions of rBipA. A positive reaction was obtained in 3 individuals for rGlpQ, but not for the rBipA versions. A posterior collection of sera in 21 cows showed that two of them were reactive to a Borrelia turicatae extract and rGlpQ. Additionally, field sampling was carried out in herds with seroreactive animals to collect ticks that were morphologically and molecularly classified as Rhipicephalus microplus. The flaB gene was PCR-amplified and sequenced in four of the ticks, resulting in the identification of Borrelia theileri. Our results indicate that B. theileri is present in ticks and suggest it may be infecting cattle in this region of Mexico.
