PCR Testing of Media Placed in Soiled Bedding as a Method for Mouse Colony Health Surveillance.
Article in Journal of the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science : JAALAS, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Rodent colony health surveillance has traditionally been accomplished by testing sentinel animals that have been exposed to soiled bedding from colony animals. Collecting samples from exhaust plenums on ventilated caging systems, followed by PCR analysis, has emerged as another promising method for health surveillance. However, environmental testing at the rack level is not effective for all ventilated rack designs. In this study, we tested whether media placed in soiled bedding is effective in detecting 3 adventitious agents: mouse norovirus (MNV),
