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

Background: Leptospirosis is a major worldwide health concern caused by pathogenic spirochetes from the genus Aim: This study aimed to find Methods: Eighty blood and urine samples were collected from sheltered dogs under general anesthesia between May and August 2025. The samples were then subjected to DNA extraction and conventional polymerase chain reaction that targeted the conserved secY gene using phylogenetic analysis and sequencing. Results: Leptospirosis DNA was found in 23 samples (28.75%), including 11 urine samples (13.75%) and 12 blood samples (15%). Male dogs aged 2-3 years had the highest incidence of infection (23.1%), whereas female dogs had the highest rate (23.5%). Conclusion: These results highlight the critical need for comprehensive surveillance programs, enhanced biosecurity procedures, and vaccination plans in shelter settings throughout the Kurdistan Region.
