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 cross-sectional study was carried out in the period between January and April 2019 with the aim of establishing prevalence of Newcastle disease (ND) in backyard chickens in Banadir region of Somalia using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA). A total of 373 unvaccinated free scavenging backyard chickens were sampled from five districts in Banadir region, namely Dharkenley, Hodan, Wadajir, Hawlwadag, and Daynile. The overall prevalence was found to be 39.4% (95% confidence interval: 34.6-44.4%) with a mean antibody titre of 3844.10 ± 263.3 (standard error). The seroprevalence of ND virus (NDV) antibody in Wadajir district was the highest (66.6%) followed by Hawlwadag, Daynile, Dharkenley, and Hodan with prevalence of 56%, 42.1%, 42.35%, and 10.6%, respectively, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). Adult chickens had significantly higher prevalence (43.8%) than growers (19.4%) (P < 0.05). The present study, which is the first of its kind in Somalia to the best of our knowledge, concluded that the disease is highly prevalent in the study area; therefore, molecular studies on the characteristics of circulating strains are to be carried out in order to develop an evidence-based control programme and minimize the economic and social impacts of ND on smallholders.
