Application of Genomics to Prevent and Combat Emerging Infectious Disease Threats in Latin America: Perspectives from an Overseas U.S. Navy Research Command.
Review in Tropical medicine and infectious disease, 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
Endemic and (re)emerging infectious diseases pose a major threat to public health and military readiness in Central and South America. The high biodiversity and the differing transmission pathways require the use of highly sensitive methods to track the emergence and spread of these diseases. High-throughput sequencing technologies have become a critical resource for the field of infectious disease monitoring, specifically for tracking pathogen evolution, antimicrobial resistance, and transmission. This review provides an overview of the implementation of genomics-informed infectious disease surveillance conducted by the U.S. Naval Medical Research Unit SOUTH, focusing on operational, infrastructural, and logistical challenges in resource-limited settings and outlining strategies for building sustainable regional capacity. Selected case studies focused on prominent biothreats including dengue, Oropouche, malaria, and antimicrobial resistance demonstrate the significance and applicability of targeted and agnostic sequencing approaches to elucidate transmission pathways, pathogen discovery, and guide public health responses and field-deployable applications.
