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

Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is an avian coronavirus that causes respiratory disease but can affect the reproductive tract of laying-type chickens. If infection occurs in pullets, false layer syndrome, which is characterized by the development of large, fluid-filled cystic oviducts, can occur. Recently, IBV strain DMV/1639 has been detected in parts of Canada and the U.S., where false layer syndrome has occurred, though it is not clear if IBV is the sole cause or if age at infection is an influencing variable. Our study investigates the role and timing of IBV infection on the development of false layer syndrome, using the IBV types DMV/1639 and Massachusetts (Mass). Six groups of 120 SPF chickens were challenged at either three, seven, or fourteen days of age, using either DMV/1639 or Mass IBV. Cystic oviducts were seen in all the challenged groups, and the pullets challenged at 14 days of age had fewer cystic oviducts than pullets challenged at 3 or 7 days of age. The highest percentage of severe histology lesion scores were seen in the 3-day challenge groups. The data collected in this experiment confirm that IBV DMV/1639 causes cystic oviducts and indicate that age at infection plays a role in the pathogenesis of false layer syndrome.
