Animal Models for Studying Trypanosoma cruzi Congenital Transmission and Associated Pathogenesis: Special Emphasis on Guinea Pig Model.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 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
Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) is the causative agent of Chagas disease (CD) that remains endemic in the American continent. Although vectorial transmission of T. cruzi is recognized as the main mode of infection, congenital transmission of T. cruzi to newborns by their infected mothers is well documented. In this article, we briefly discuss the current knowledge of congenital transmission of T. cruzi in humans and compare the placental architecture of humans with the experimental models that have been used to study the effects of maternal T. cruzi infection on the newborns. We point out the similarities and specific characteristics of the placentas to inform the usefulness and limitations of the experimental models in evaluating the pathogenesis of congenital transmission of T. cruzi or examining the efficacy of diagnostic tests or therapies to prevent congenital CD. We present more detailed information on the guinea pig model of T. cruzi congenital transmission.
