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

The manned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus) has a highly diversified diet, that includes fish and amphibians, which may harbor infective forms of parasites, such as Dioctophyma renale and Pearsonema (syn. Capillaria) spp. Both parasites affect the urinary tract of their hosts, with D. renale being capable of infecting a wide range of mammalian species, whereas Pearsonema spp. exclusively parasitizes wild and domestic canids and felids, releasing their eggs in the urine of the host. This study reports the first coinfection by D. renale and Pearsonema sp. in the urine of a free-ranging maned wolf as well as associated laboratory findings. A male adult maned wolf, injured in a train accident in an urban area, was referred to the Centro de Triagem de Animais Silvestres (CETAS) - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where hemogram, biochemistry, ultrasonography, and urinalysis were performed. Ultrasonography examination revealed findings consistent with parasitism by D. renale in the right kidney and right perirenal region. Urinary sediment examination showed D. renale (5/field) and Pearsonema sp. eggs (1/field). Egg morphometry was performed, yielding mean length and width values of 62.2 μm and 41.2 μm for D. renale and 58.0 μm and 26.1 μm for Pearsonema sp., respectively. Through sediment examination and morphometry, it was possible to confirm Pearsonema sp. and D. renale infection, the latter also confirmed by ultrasonography, highlighting the importance of urinalysis in wild animals and demonstrating the need for continuous investigation into Pearsonema spp. which are poorly studied in wild canids.
