Characterization and Pathogenicity of Equine Herpesvirus Type 8 Using In-Vitro and In-Vivo Models.

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
Equine herpesvirus type 8 (EHV-8) is predominantly isolated from donkeys, but its biological properties and pathogenic potential remain underexplored. This study aimed to investigate the biological characteristics and pathogenicity of the EHV-8 LCDC01 isolate by examining its effects in rabbit kidney (RK-13) cells and BALB/c mice. The virus was assessed for its ability to induce viral replication, pathological changes, and alterations in pro-inflammatory responses. In vitro, the EHV-8 infection of RK-13 cells induced characteristic cytopathic effects, including cell contraction, the formation of grapevine bundle-like structures, and detachment. In vivo, mice infected with the virus exhibited no clinical signs other than weight loss. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis detected viral DNA exclusively in the lungs of infected mice, while TaqMan PCR further confirmed the presence of EHV-8 nucleic acids in the lungs, liver, brain, and intestines. Furthermore, ELISA assays revealed a significant increase in the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and IFN-α, in the lungs (
