Bovine brucellosis sero-prevalence trend during 2011-14 and 2015-18 in Indian sub-continent.
Article in Veterinary research communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Brucellosis, a significant zoonotic disease impacting livestock and human health poses substantial economic and public health challenges in endemic regions. This study analyses and compares the sero-prevalence of bovine brucellosis across 14 states in India over two distinct periods: 2011-14 and 2015-18. A stratified random sampling approach and a protein G-based indirect Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (iELISA) were employed to evaluate 6408 bovine serum samples during 2015-18 (cattle- 4495; buffaloes- 1913) and results were compared to published data of 2011-14. Chi-square test and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were carried out to know the significance among the states and also between the two time periods. Bovine brucellosis sero-prevalence across Indian states showed a significant decline from 2011 to 14 to 2015-18. In cattle, sero-prevalence reduced from 9.60 to 1.76% (p < 0.0001) with notable reductions in seven states (Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and Rajasthan). Except in the state of Punjab, highest sero-prevalence was noted despite a significant decrease (p = 0.002). Whereas, in buffaloes, prevalence declined from 5.35 to 2.67% (p < 0.0001), with significant reduction in two out of ten states tested with modest decreases in other states. The study revealed that only 2 out of 10 states showed reduced brucellosis sero-prevalence in buffaloes indicating the need for aggressive control efforts and continued investment in surveillance, vaccination, and public health education.
