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

This study was conducted to evaluate the virulence and evolution of genotype IX Newcastle disease virus (NDV) isolates obtained from wild birds in the northern Qinling Mountains of China. Five isolates were obtained from 374 larynx and cloacae swabs, which were collected from multiple asymptomatic wild bird species from August 2008 to July 2011, and were subsequently characterized by pathotype and genotype. Deduced amino acid sequences revealed that all five NDV isolates exhibited velogenic fusion protein cleavage sites motif (112)R-R-Q-R-R-F(117), shared as high as 99.8-99.9 % homology with each other, and varied in pathotype by intracerebral pathogenicity indices (ICPI) of 0.425-1.638. Phylogenetic analysis showed that all five isolates were clustered to genotype IX NDV. This is the first study to confirm multiple asymptomatic wild bird species as natural carriers of virulent genotype IX NDV. A novel NDV isolate from the Spotted-necked Dove (family Columbidae) exhibited discordance between its lentogenic ICPI and its virulent proteolytic cleavage site motif (112)R-R-Q-R-R-F(117). Although the five isolates underwent several amino acid mutations in the fusion protein, evidence of continuous evolutionary divergence did exist in the genotype IX NDV, which was always regarded as a conservative genotype.
