Detection of Trypanosoma spp. and Leishmania spp. in bats from the department of Atlantico, Colombia.
Article in Revista peruana de medicina experimental y salud publica, 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
Objectives: To determine the frequency of Trypanosoma spp. and Leishmania spp. infection in bats captured in the municipalities of Piojó, Tubará, and Usiacurí, in the department of Atlántico, in the northern Colombian Caribbean region. Materials and methods: Between August 2022 and April 2023, bats were captured using mist nets; these were taxonomically identified, and their sex, reproductive stage, and relative age were established. Blood samples were obtained from the brachial vein. The identification of Trypanosoma spp. was performed through parasitological and molecular diagnosis; DNA was extracted, and the kinetoplast region (kDNA) was amplified. For the identification of Leishmania spp., the β-tubulin region was amplified. Results: From 110 bats analyzed, an overall infection frequency of 14.50% (16/110) was determined. The presence of Trypanosoma spp. was detected in 14.50% (16/110) of the individuals and Leishmania spp. in 10.00% (11/110). Coinfection was identified in 11 specimens, equivalent to a frequency of 10.00% of the total sample. The coinfected bats belonged to the species Artibeus lituratus, Artibeus jamaicensis, and Phyllostomus hastatus. Conclusions: This study constitutes the first report on the frequency of trypanosomatid coinfection in bats from the department of Atlántico.
