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

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a zoonotic pathogen that circulates mainly between pigs and humans. In Japan, the number of confirmed HEV cases has increased over the past decade, with the majority reported as domestic HEV infections. HEV-infected pork products may be associated with this increase, but there is limited information on HEV in pork in Japanese markets. From February to March 2020, gallbladders were collected from 200 slaughtered pigs shipped from 14 farms and were surveyed to detect HEV RNA in bile using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The samples were then sequenced and genotyped. Twenty pigs were positive for HEV ribonucleic acid, and seven samples had Ct values of less than 30. Among these 20 pigs, virus strains from 14 pigs were determined as genotype 3. This report indicated that HEV-contaminated pork liver was shipped to consumer markets and demonstrated the importance of detection of HEV in meat ready for shipment.
