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

The porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) possesses an inherent ability to adapt to environmental transformations and undergo evolutionary changes, which has imposed significant economic pressure on the global pig industry. Given the potential for recombination among PRRSV genomes and variations in pathogenicity, newly emerging PRRSV isolates are of considerable clinical importance. In this study, we successfully isolated a novel strain named XJ-Z5 from PRRSV-positive samples collected in Xinjiang province in 2022. Through comprehensive genomic sequencing, phylogenetic analysis, and recombination analysis, we confirmed that this strain belongs to the NADC30-like recombinant PRRSV. During pathogenicity tests in piglets, this strain exhibited moderate virulence, causing symptoms such as reduced appetite, persistent fever, and weight loss; however, no mortality cases were observed. Tests conducted at various time points detected the presence of PRRSV nucleic acid in nasal swabs, rectal swabs, tissue samples, and blood, with the highest viral loads found in lung tissue and blood. Serum biochemical tests indicated significant impairment of liver and kidney function. PRRSV antibodies began to appear gradually after 10 days post infection. Hematoxylin and eosin staining revealed substantial pathological changes in lung tissue and lymph nodes. This study enhances our understanding of the epidemiology of PRRSV and underscores the importance of ongoing monitoring and research in light of the challenges posed by the continuous evolution of viral strains. Furthermore, the research emphasizes the urgency of the rapid genomic analysis of emerging viral strains. Through these comprehensive research and monitoring strategies, we aimed to curb the spread of PRRSV more effectively and thus reduce the huge economic losses it caused to the pig industry.
