Seroprevalence and prevalence of Mycoplasma synoviae in laying hens and broiler breeders in Spain.
Article in Poultry science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Mycoplasma species are worldwide recognized poultry pathogens, with Mycoplasma synoviae being the second most important species from the clinical point of view that causes considerable economic losses in the poultry industry. The aim of this study was to assess the seroprevalence, prevalence, and phylogenetic variants of M. synoviae present in layers and broiler breeders' farms of Gallus gallus species located in eastern Spain. Thus, 19 and 23 flocks of layers and broiler breeders, respectively, were analyzed at 3 different ages. To assess seroprevalence, sera samples were analyzed by ELISA. Tracheal swabs were tested by PCR to assess the prevalence. A M. synoviae seroprevalence of 95 and 74% was detected in layers and broiler breeders, respectively. Regarding age-wise analysis, the positive rates obtained seemed to be higher as the age of sampling increased. As per PCR results, a prevalence of 95% in layers and 35% in broiler breeders was obtained. The genetic analysis showed that the strains present in broilers breeders were vaccine strains (MS H strain). In contrast, 6 different field strains were detected in layer hens. In conclusion, this study carried out in eastern Spain showed a higher seroprevalence and prevalence of M. synoviae field strains in layer flocks regarding broiler breeders, highlighting the usefulness of monitoring flocks to control this poultry pathogen. Moreover, our findings suggest M. synoviae vaccination in broiler breeders could be an effective prevention strategy.
