Impact of Livestock Shed Sanitation on Zoonotic Parasite Exposure in Stunted Children from Farming Communities.
Article in Iranian journal of parasitology. 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: Poor livestock shed sanitation may facilitate transmission of intestinal protozoa and contribute to child undernutrition, particularly stunting. However, evidence on zoonotic risks in smallholder farming communities remains limited. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 79 stunted children (<5 years) and 79 cattle in Jember Regency, Indonesia. Anthropometric status was assessed using the WHO criteria. Shed sanitation was evaluated through structured observation (location, orientation, construction, waste handling, cleanliness). Stool samples from children and cattle were examined for Results: Conclusion: Poor shed sanitation, particularly proximity to homes, and lack of sunlight exposure, was associated with intestinal protozoa among stunted children. While causality cannot be inferred due to diagnostic and design limitations, the findings highlight the importance of livestock management in child health. Further studies with molecular diagnostics and larger representative samples are recommended.
