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

Infectious coryza is a major respiratory disease of chickens induced by Avibacterium paragallinarum. Understanding the prevalent serovars of the bacterium is fundamental for effective prevention and control of the disease. Moreover, improving the immune efficacy of the infectious coryza vaccine for laying hens under modern production systems is critical for disease management. Enterococcus faecium is a probiotic bacterium. However, the impact of E. faecium on infectious coryza vaccine efficacy has not been investigated. In this study, we isolated and identified Av. paragallinarum strains from chickens with suspected infectious coryza in farms in central China between 2019 and 2022. Serotyping was performed based on the haemagglutinin HMTp210 gene sequence. Seventy-two strains were isolated, including 19 strains of serovar A-1, 44 strains of serovar C-4, and six strains of serovar B. Three strains were non-serotypable. Av. paragallinarum loads in palatine clefts of the flocks were detected using qPCR targeting the recN gene which revealed increasing loads with age that stabilized at 31 weeks of age (5.59 × 10³ CFU/g). Healthy Hy-Line Grey laying hens were immunized with the infectious coryza vaccine at six weeks of age, and E. faecium TC3 was added to feed at a concentration of 10
