Spontaneous Hepatobiliary Disease in a Breeding Colony of Aotus spp.
Article in Journal of medical primatology, 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
backgroundOwl monkeys are nonhuman primate species in the genus Aotus. The Michale E. Keeling Center for Comparative Medicine and Research maintains an Owl Monkey Breeding and Research Resource composed of four species of owl monkeys: Aotus nancymai, A. vociferans, A. azarae, and A. griseimembra. Disease of the hepatobiliary system has not been well characterized in Aotus.
methodsNecropsy records from a 17-year period were reviewed to characterize the gross and microscopic lesions of liver disease.
results316 adult owl monkeys were submitted for necropsy in the review period; 22 of 316 (6.96%) were diagnosed with hepatobiliary disease. Cardiac-associated hepatopathy was the most common diagnosis (6/22). Previously unreported conditions included cystic mucinous hyperplasia (1/22), acute cholangiohepatitis (1/22), idiopathic end-stage hepatopathy (1/22), cholangiocarcinoma (2/22), and acute cholecystitis (4/22). Vitamin E deficiency anemia (3/22) and hemosiderosis (4/22) have been reported in the genus, and these diagnoses were noted.
conclusionsThe spectrum of hepatobiliary pathology in owl monkeys is broader than previous reports have suggested.
