Surveillance and Molecular Characterization of Marek's Disease Virus (MDV) Strains Circulating in Tanzania.
Article in Viruses, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Marek's disease (MD) is a highly contagious and oncogenic viral disease of poultry, causing significant economic losses due to mortality and reduced performance. The rapid evolution of Marek's disease virus (MDV) has been reported in poultry farms, often overcoming vaccination and leading to disease outbreaks. This study aimed to detect and molecularly characterize circulating MDV strains in Tanzania, with a focus on their genetic relationship with the vaccine strains currently in use (HVT and CVI988). Samples were collected from six livestock representative zones in Tanzania (Central, Eastern, Southern, Southern Highlands, Lake, and Northern Zone) and analyzed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing of key oncogenic genes (
