Prevalence of high zoonotic-importance gastrointestinal helminth parasites and associated risk factors in synanthropic rodents in Greece.
Article in Open veterinary journal, 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
Background: Rodents are a group of animals that are important from a veterinary and public health perspective, as they harbor various pathogens. Among them, gastrointestinal helminths have attracted significant scientific attention in recent years, as some of them can be transmitted to humans, supporting the role of rodents in maintaining and spreading zoonotic pathogens. Information on gastrointestinal helminth infections in rodents in Greece is limited. Aim: The present study aimed to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinal helminthic infection in synanthropic rodent species in Northern Greece, investigate potential factors associated with these infections, and assess the relevance of rodents as hosts of zoonotic parasites. Methods: The investigated areas included urban, semi-urban, and rural habitats. Fecal samples were collected from 100 rodents belonging to three species (68 Results: Copromicroscopic examination revealed gastrointestinal helminths in 58% of the rodents. The parasites and prevalence were as follows: the nematodes Conclusion: The findings of this study demonstrate the presence of helminth parasitic pathogens in synanthropic rodents in different environments and a strong association with the area of origin, with a particularly high prevalence in an important summer destination.
