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

Ticks and tick-borne diseases (TTBDs) remain a major constraint to livestock productivity and a growing public health concern in tropical settings such as Bangladesh. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of livestock farmers regarding TTBDs and to identify associated determinants. A cross-sectional survey was conducted from 5 January to 15 February 2026 among 530 randomly selected livestock farmers across eight districts using a structured questionnaire, with data analyzed through descriptive statistics, logistic regression, and Spearman's correlation. Only 27.7% of respondents demonstrated good knowledge, despite a high positive attitude (85.5%) and moderately satisfactory practices (45.3%). In multivariate analysis, higher education emerged as a strong predictor of good knowledge, with graduates significantly more likely to be knowledgeable compared to those without formal education (AOR = 10.3, 95% CI: 3.33-36.4,
