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: East Coast fever (ECF), caused by Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in three districts of northern Malawi (Chitipa, Karonga, and Mzimba). A structured questionnaire on feeding style, treatment of ECF, and tick control practices was administered to 79 farmers, and blood samples and animal information were collected from 550 cattle. PCR using p104 gene-specific assay was used to screen for Results: The overall farm- and animal-level prevalence was 78.5% (62/79 farms, 95% CI: 67.8-86.9%) and 28.4% (156/550 animals, 95% CI: 24.6-32.3%), respectively. Phylogenetic trees suggested 4 variants of Tp1 and 6 variants of Tp2 circulations among cattle populations in Malawi. Moran's Discussion: Future ECF control should integrate traditional ethnoveterinary medicine for calves.
