Spatial Cluster Analysis and Key Influencing Factors of African Swine Fever in China (2018-2021).
Article in Journal of veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
importanceAfrican swine fever (ASF) is a significant transboundary disease with profound global economic impacts. ASF, caused by the
objectiveThe study aimed to trace ASF transmission, map the spatial distribution and spread dynamics, and model the spread to evaluate the potential control strategies.
methodsStandardized deviational ellipse analysis was used to identify the directionality and distribution of ASF outbreaks. Ordinary least squares regression and geographically weighted regression were applied to account for spatial heterogeneity and explore the localized relationships within the data set.
resultsThe ASF transmission in China was delineated across three phases, characterized by an initial rapid spread, a subsequent westward expansion, and a final plateau phase with a southwestward trend. The key factors influencing ASF transmission included the pig population density, wind speeds, altitude, and the presence of high-risk roads, with seasonality also playing a significant role in the disease incidence. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: This research highlights the significant impact of small-scale farming practices and the live pig transportation network on ASF spread. In addition, it identifies key epidemiological factors, including the pig density and seasonal variations, which are crucial for developing effective disease control strategies.
