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

The Orf virus (ORFV) poses a significant threat to livestock and human health, causing economic losses in the livestock industry and potential zoonotic infections. Given the limitations of current vaccines, the objective of this study was to investigate the immune response and gut microbiota modulation induced by the ORFV B2L gene-based DNA vaccine (GV) and the live attenuated vaccine (LV) in rats. The findings of this study will provide a scientific foundation for the development of more effective vaccines. Female Sprague-Dawley rats, which were free of specific pathogens, were divided into three groups. The experiment included three groups: the first group was designated as the GV group, the second group was designated as the LV group, and the third group was designated as the control group. Rats in the GV group received intra-muscular injection of 100μg/dose of pVAX - B2L - asd plasmid, those in the LV group were immunized with a commercial live - attenuated vaccine, and the control group was injected with PBS. After immunization, various immune - related parameters, such as T - cell subsets, antibody levels, cytokines, and oxidative stress markers, were measured. To this end, composition and function of gut microbiota were thoroughly examined through the implementation of 16S rRNA gene sequencing and PICRUSt-2 functional prediction. The GV group exhibited elevated levels of cellular and humoral immunity. It had a higher percentage of CD4
