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
The Alphaherpesvirinae subfamily belongs to the Orthoherpesviridae family, whose viruses are characterized by rapid replication and the ability to establish latent infection in host cells. These viruses cause important avian diseases such as Marek's disease, infectious laryngotracheitis, and Pacheco's disease (PD) in psittacines. In Brazilian avifauna, especially within the Psittacidae family, sanitary problems are frequently observed due to stress caused by deforestation and wildlife trafficking, factors that can exacerbate herpesvirus infections. Due to the limited available data on herpesvirus occurrence in wild psittacines, the aim of this study was to survey and identify alphaherpesviruses in psittacine species in Mato Grosso using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, correlating the results with phylogenetic analysis. Biological samples were obtained from IBAMA, SEMA, and CEMPAS and sent to the Veterinary Hospital of UFMT (HOVET) between 2019 and 2024. PCR-positive samples, which amplified a 264-bp fragment of the UL30 gene, were subjected to sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. In total, 131 samples were analyzed, including liver tissue, cloacal swabs, and blood, from both captive and free-living birds. Twelve (9.16%) were positive by PCR, with swabs showing the highest detection rate. A sequenced sample from
