Isolation and Molecular Identification of Potentially Pathogenic Free-Living Amoeba in Tap Water Faucets in Quezon City, Philippines.
Article in Journal of parasitology research, 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
Free-living amoebae (FLA) are ubiquitous in environmental water and soil, and their presence in water systems for human consumption is a public health concern due to their potential pathogenicity and ability to act as a reservoir for pathogenic bacteria. This study identified potentially pathogenic FLAs in urban water systems, specifically from tap water faucets. A total of 26 faucets were sampled, with 16 (62%) testing positive for FLAs. These included faucets from comfort rooms (
