Virome sequencing and analysis of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus from ecologically different sites in the Philippines.
Article in Parasites & vectors, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundAedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are important vectors of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) such as dengue, chikungunya, and Zika. Changes in land use have long been considered a factor in the emergence of infectious diseases; thus, it is imperative to look at how the diversity of viruses is also affected by land use.
methodsViral metagenomics was used to determine the virome compositions of 260 Ae. aegypti and 75 Ae. albopictus collected from the three study sites in Los Baños, Laguna, Philippines, that differ in topography and land use transformations.
resultsThe virome of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus revealed virus sequences belonging to 12 different taxon groups, dominated by insect-specific viruses (ISVs) such as Phasi Charoen-like phasivirus (PCLV), Humaita Tubiacanga virus (HTV), and Wenzhou sobemo-like virus 4 (WSLV4). Both species were found to share the majority of identified viruses. Moreover, a relatively higher number of viral families were observed in sites that had undergone transformation from agriculture to bare and built-up areas, compared with a forest site.
conclusionsThe findings of this study underscore the vast diversity of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus viruses from the selected sites in the Philippines generated by viromics. Results also impact the understanding that land use may contribute to virus diversity. The prevalence of ISVs and nondetection of arboviruses in the virome composition of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus were notable, suggesting further examination of the roles of ISVs in arbovirus transmission.
