Detection of avian, murine, bovine, shrew, and bat coronaviruses in wild mammals from Mexico.
Article in Virology journal, 2025. 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
Coronaviruses infect a wide range of animal and human hosts. Some human coronaviruses, such as SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2, originated in animals, with bats often serving as ancestral hosts. This study analyzed samples from wild animals in three Mexican states, using an RT-PCR assay targeting the RdRp gene to detect and genotype coronaviruses, assessing their potential role as reservoirs. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted to determine the genetic relationships of the identified coronaviruses. Gammacoronavirus RNA was identified in fallow deer, llamas, spider monkeys, and mouflons; Betacoronavirus RNA in mouflons and dwarf goats; and Alphacoronavirus RNA in dwarf goats and ponies. The detected viral sequences exhibited high nucleotide identity with known coronaviruses, including Avian coronavirus (Gammacoronavirus), Murine coronavirus (Betacoronavirus), Betacoronavirus 1 (Betacoronavirus), Wénchéng shrew coronavirus (unclassified Alphacoronavirus), and Bat coronavirus HKU10 (Alphacoronavirus). These findings represent the first report of Avian coronavirus, Murine coronavirus, Wénchéng shrew coronavirus, and Bat coronavirus HKU10 in these species, as well as the first detection of Avian coronavirus in llamas, spider monkeys, and mouflons. This study provides valuable insights into the potential role of wildlife as coronavirus reservoirs, highlighting the importance of monitoring these viruses to mitigate future zoonotic transmission risks.
