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

Introduction: Methods: A cross-sectional field assessment was conducted on seven farms (Esmeraldas, Results: Phenotypic resistance to at least one acaricide was detected on all evaluated farms. Resistance prevalence was 43% for amitraz, 86% for ivermectin, and 100% for alpha-cypermethrin. Multi-resistance occurred on 86% of farms. Estimated lethal dose values revealed extremely high LD₉₀ and LD₉₉ levels, frequently exceeding recommended commercial concentrations by several orders of magnitude. Exploratory screening suggested that extensive cattle production systems and the presence of alternative hosts, particularly horses and other equids, may contribute to resistance emergence and persistence. Discussion: The results are particularly relevant because
