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

The family Spiciviridae, belonging to the order Ghabrivirales, is currently composed of only one officially recognized genus, Spicivirus. However, metagenomic studies have revealed an increasing diversity of related viruses, suggesting that the current classification may underestimate their evolutionary complexity. In this context, the aim of the present study was to detect and characterize new viruses related to the Spiciviridae in the family Culicidae mosquitoes. A total of nineteen mosquito pools were sequenced and analyzed using metagenomic approaches and bioinformatics tools. Among these, two novel viruses were identified in four pools (S4, S11, S18, and S19), provisionally named Sabethes virus 1 (SV1) and Sabethes virus 2 (SV2). Phylogenetic inference revealed clades with strong statistical support and genetic divergences greater than 20% in the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) protein. These findings contribute to a detailed analysis of the genomic diversity associated with Spiciviridae. Although Spicivirus is currently the only genus officially recognized, our results suggest the presence of viruses that may represent new taxonomic groupings not yet described by the ICTV.
