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

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was performed in this study to amplify the major surface protein 5 (msp5) gene from the genomic DNA of Anaplasma marginale in Hyalomma asiaticum ticks by species-specific primers. Sequence analysis showed that the msp5 gene was 643 bases long and that the PCR products from the samples had an identical sequence (JX507127). Moreover, the BLAST showed that the sequence was identical to the msp5 sequences of A. marginale and most closely related to the A. marginale msp5 gene (AB704328) and the Liangdang strain of the A. marginale msp5 gene (EF546443) with similarity of 99 % (differing only by two bases). An epidemiological survey was performed in several dairy farms: a total of 68 ticks were collected from 49 cattle. As a result, 14 of the 49 (28.57 %) blood smears stained with Wright-Giemsa and 22 of the 68 (32.35 %) ticks examined by PCR assay exhibited A. marginale infection. The results of the PCR assay were mostly consistent with the results of the microscopic examination. A number of results were negative in blood smear but positive in PCR, which is important for the early diagnosis of anaplasmosis.
