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

Background: Avian reovirus (ARV) is a major poultry pathogen associated with arthritis, malabsorption, and enteric diseases in chickens. In recent years, emerging ARV strains have become a growing concern causing significant economic losses in broiler chickens around the world. This report focuses on the isolation of ARV from the clinical occurrence of ARV-associated diseases in commercial broiler chickens in Iran and the genotypic characterization of the selected isolates. Case description: In 2018, two distinct clinical diseases, suggestive of malabsorption syndrome (MAS) and viral arthritis, were noticed in commercial broiler chickens in the north of Iran. Laboratory investigations were carried out following necropsy, documentation of the gross lesions, and sampling of the affected tissues for histopathology and virology. Molecular diagnosis and characterization of ARV were performed targeting Sigma C (σC) gene sequences of the virus. Findings/treatment and outcome: Two variant ARV strains were isolated from tendon and gizzard of broilers with clinical viral arthritis and MAS, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of the ARV σC gene sequences revealed that field isolates were clustered in genotypes 2 and 4 (which were distinct from previous Iranian field ARV strains) with relatively low sequence identity (59.2% and 49.1%) to the classical vaccine strains (S1133 and 1733) in genotype 1.
