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

Although most coronaviruses are thought to have their origins in bats, there is little information on whether bats are still susceptible to the currently prevalent coronaviruses. We generated a continuous cell line from a kidney of Pipistrellus abramus (P. abramus) by serial passaging of the cells, which could be proliferated for more than 80 passages without any immortalization process. We found that porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and bovine coronavirus (BCoV) were able to infect and generate progeny viruses in P. abramus-derived cells in the presence of trypsin, although the replication efficiency was quite low. The findings suggest that P. abramus could be susceptible to PEDV and BCoV and may play a potential role as a transmitter of the viruses.
