Revisiting Ornithodoros (Pavlovskyella) nicollei (Ixodida: Argasidae): new records and first molecular data from Mexico.
Article in Experimental & applied acarology, 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
This study updates the distribution and phylogenetic position of Ornithodoros (Pavlovskyella) nicollei in Mexico through new occurrence records, morphological identification, and the first molecular data for the species. A total of 171 specimens were collected from seven localities across five Mexican states: Sinaloa, State of Mexico, Puebla, Oaxaca, and Chiapas. Morphological identification was based on diagnostic characters consistent with previous descriptions of the species. For molecular characterization, a 475 bp fragment of the mitochondrial 16S rDNA gene was sequenced, showing 83.09-84.26% identity with other Neotropical members of the subgenus Pavlovskyella. Phylogenetic analysis placed O. (P.) nicollei within the Neotropical Pavlovskyella clade, where it represents the northernmost known member. These results expand the known distribution of the species in Mexico and provide the first molecular framework for its phylogenetic placement and biogeographic significance.
