1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundOwing to the recent spread of the yellow fever virus in Brazil and imminent risk of its establishment in previously disease-free areas in the northeast of the country, epidemiological surveillance actions are necessary, including knowledge of non-human primate populations and the vectors that inhabit risk areas. The objective of this study was to evaluate the movement of sylvatic and urban yellow fever vectors between an Atlantic Forest fragment and its surrounding areas.

methodsThe study site was the Mata do Junco Wildlife Refuge Conservation Unit (CU) in Capela, Sergipe, Brazil. Immatures were collected using ovitraps in the forested area and in peridomestic environments surrounding the CU.

resultsFourteen species were recorded, six of which were epidemiologically relevant. The main vectors of yellow fever in Brazil were present in the CU. Aedes albopictus (Skuse, 1894) was the most abundant species and was present in all studied environments. Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) was not collected from forested areas. Among the native species, Haemagogus leucocelaenus (Dyar & Shannon, 1924) and Haemagogus janthinomys (Dyar, 1921) were collected only in the forested area of the CU, whereas Haemagogus spegazzinii (Brètes, 1921) was collected both in the forest and in the area around the CU.

conclusionExotic species circulate between wild and urban areas for feeding and oviposition, but circulation to the urban area is limited among native species.
