Traumatic myiasis in wild animals admitted to a rehabilitation center in southeastern Turkey.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 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
Background and objectives: Traumatic myiasis develops when dipteran larvae colonize pre-existing wounds and may complicate the management of injured wildlife. Wildlife-associated cases remain insufficiently documented, particularly in reptiles and wild ungulates. This study aimed to characterize traumatic myiasis in wild animals admitted to a rehabilitation center in southeastern Turkey and to identify the causative dipteran species using integrated morphological and molecular approaches. Materials and methods: Eight wild animals with traumatic myiasis admitted between December 2020 and September 2022 were evaluated. Larvae collected during routine wound management were identified morphologically. Forty third-instar larvae, five from each clinical case, underwent mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequencing. Following quality control and within-case redundancy assessment, 11 representative study sequences were retained for comparative analyses. Species assignments were evaluated using sequence similarity, pairwise nucleotide divergence, and maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis. Results: A total of 132 third-instar larvae were recovered. Four dipteran species were identified: Conclusion: Combined morphological examination and COI-based molecular analysis provided concordant species-level identification of myiasis-causing larvae in this small opportunistic wildlife case series. The findings expand descriptive knowledge of traumatic myiasis in wildlife from southeastern Turkey.
