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

Feline parvovirus (FPV) or feline panleukopenia virus is a highly contagious, life-threatening infectious virus in cats. Although FPV vaccination is routinely practiced in China, clinical diseases continue to occur. The investigation of genotypes and viral evolution can contribute to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of FPV. Therefore, this study aimed to provide an up-to-date understanding of the epidemiological, genotypic, and phylogenetic characteristics of FPV. In total, 152 rectal swabs were collected from diseased cats. All swab samples were tested for FPV using molecular methods. Amplification of the complete viral protein 2 (VP2) gene was performed for further analysis and to infer the genotypic and evolutionary characteristics of FPV. Of the 152 samples, FPV DNA was detected in 17 (17/152, 11.18%). Cats with FPV showed variable clinical signs such as dehydration, anorexia, fever, vomiting, and blood-stained diarrhea. Furthermore, VP2 sequences were identified in 17 PCR-positive cats, confirming the presence of FPV. Phylogenetic and nucleotide pairwise identity analyses revealed high genetic similarity among FPV sequences (99.6-100%) and clustered them into the FPV-G1 group. Amino acid analysis indicated a novel mutation (Ala91Ser) in all VP2 gene sequences amplified in this study. Our study provides baseline epidemiological data for the better prevention of FPV with respect to vaccination strategies. Genotypic and phylogenetic analyses confirm that FPV-G1 was the predominant FPV group in infected cats in Kunshan. Therefore, a rigorous countrywide investigation of the genotypic and evolutionary characteristics of FPV is warranted.
