High Detection Frequency of Enteric Pathogens: Insight from Wastewater-Based Epidemiology (WBE) Surveillance Approach in Dakar, Senegal.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 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
Despite the importance of wastewater environmental monitoring in disease prevention and response strategies, its use remains poorly documented in Senegal. In addition, there is more onsite sanitation than sewer networks in Dakar, and open drains channel for rainwater are also used as clandestine wastewater discharge into the sea. This study aimed to assess the presence of specific pathogens in wastewater, faecal sludge, and bathing water (the sea). Samples were taken at treatment plants, an open drain, and in the receiving environment (the sea) from June to December 2023. Total nucleic acid was subjected to multiplex qualitative qPCR using SeeGene Allplex™ kits targeting 34 gastrointestinal pathogens. Descriptive statistics, multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) and logistic regression were performed. Considering all matrices, across 51 analysed samples, the results revealed strong bacterial (96.08%, n = 49), parasitic (84.31%, n = 43), and viral (68.63%, n = 35) presence. These results showed high levels of
