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

Astroviruses (AstVs) are major causative agents of gastroenteritis and have been detected worldwide. Little is known about the prevalence of neurotropic AstVs in Chinese water buffaloes, but a novel species which is associated with encephalitis and meningitis has recently been found. In this study, based on nested RT-PCR, rapid amplification of the 3'-cDNA end (3'-RACE) and next-generation sequencing (NGS), we examined the infection of AstVs in water buffaloes in the Guangxi Province of China. The results showed that the AstV infection was found in 40% (6/15) of the farms examined, and the prevalence of AstV in their feces was 11% (33/297). In addition, two near-full-length and two complete open reading frame 2 (ORF2) genes of AstVs from fecal sources were sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis of the ORF2 sequences indicated three lineages of BufAstVs, BufAstV lineage 1 was close related to the BoAstV, lineage 2 was related to the BufAstVs, and lineage 3 was classified as novel AstVs, which had a close relationship with the neurotropic/neurovirulent AstVs strains found in bovine, ovine, and musks. Moreover, genomic a recombination between the BufAstV and BoAstV strains was identified. This is a novel study reporting the genetic diversity of BufAstV infection in China especially found the similar neurotropic strains from fecal sources of water buffaloes, and it also provides details of the epidemiology, genetic recombination, and interspecies transmission of BoAstV and BufAstV in water buffaloes from the Guangxi Province of China.
