Outbreaks of canine distemper in Dutch and Belgian mink farms.
Article in The veterinary quarterly, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundVaccination of farmed minks against canine distemper virus (CDV) has proved to be very effective. In the Netherlands, vaccination of farmed minks against CDV was mandatory until the closure of the local agricultural product boards at the end of 2014.
objectivesTo describe the first documented outbreaks of CD in Dutch mink farms since the closure of the agricultural product boards, as well as an outbreak in Belgium, with special attention to genotyping of the isolates.
methodsA full post-mortem was performed on three carcasses per submission from farms A-C and on two carcasses from farm D. Molecular detection with subsequent typing was performed on eleven samples originating from four different farms. To assess genetic diversity partial sequences of the H gene of CDV were compared based on phylogenetic analysis.
resultsIn 2017, there was a sudden series of CD outbreaks affecting four mink farms in the Netherlands (A-C) and Belgium (D). Gross, histologic and immunohistochemical findings were similar. There was a degree of genetic similarity between the viruses on farms A and D (98.5%) and between the viruses on farms B and C (97.3%), but the viruses from farms A and D belonged to a different clade than the viruses from farms B and C. Higher mortalities were reported in white and pastel minks.
conclusionsFindings indicated that the difference in severity of the outbreaks was partially related to the genetic composition of the farm populations. Vaccination against CDV on Dutch and Belgian mink farms seems warranted.
