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

Hematological profiles of wild rodents provide important insights into their species-specific adaptations, physiological status, and immune responses. However, reference data for wild species remain limited since these are mainly derived from laboratory rodents. This study investigated the leukocyte composition and morphology in 113 wild rodents representing the family Muridae and the subfamily Arvicolinae from several regions of seven prefectures of Greece. Blood samples were collected from live-trapped individuals, and peripheral blood smears were analyzed using Giemsa staining. We evaluated leukocyte variation related to taxonomy and sex. Marked differences were observed between Muridae and Arvicolinae, while lymphocytes predominated in both. Arvicolinae exhibited higher neutrophil and lower lymphocyte proportions than Muridae. Leukocyte profiles were relatively consistent among Arvicolinae, but interspecific variation was evident within the genus
