Epidemiological, Clinical, and Molecular Insights into Canine Distemper Virus in the Mekong Delta Region of Vietnam.

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
Canine distemper virus (CDV) is a highly contagious pathogen and causes a fatal systemic disease in domestic dogs and wild carnivores worldwide. Despite CDV infections being monitored globally, studies on CDV in Vietnam seem to be limited. This study, therefore, investigated the epidemiological, clinical, and molecular characteristics of CDV in the Mekong Delta (MD) region of Vietnam. A total of 6687 ocular/nasal swabs were collected from CDV-suspected dogs across seven cities/provinces. CDV infection was detected in 6.19% (414 dogs) of suspected dogs using a commercially available rapid kit, with infection associated with age, roaming status, and vaccination status. Hematological and blood biochemical analysis of CDV-infected dogs revealed anemia, leukopenia, neutrophilia, thrombocytopenia, a slight increase in aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels, and a significant increase in blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels. Molecular characterization of partial hemagglutinin (H) and fusion (F) genes exhibited high nucleotide and amino acid homology with the Asia-1 genotype. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed that the field sequences were clustered into the Asia-1 genotype together with the neighboring countries. These findings provide important insights into the current epidemiological, clinical, and molecular features of CDV circulating in Vietnam.
