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

Animal tuberculosis (TB) affects a wide range of domestic species, including goats. TB eradication programs in goats are based on cell-based techniques such as the single and comparative intradermal tuberculin test (SITT and CITT, respectively). In recent years, an ELISA technique based on the P22 protein complex (P22 ELISA), has emerged as a valuable tool for TB diagnosis. The aim of the study was to evaluate the performance of the P22 ELISA in the context of a caprine TB eradication program using serum, individual milk and bulk tank milk (BTM) samples in order to define its usefulness in classifying herds compared to SITT and CITT. Samples from 53 herds categorized based on the detection of CITT reactors (16 high-risk herds, with one or more CITT reactors, and 37 low-risk herds, with only CITT-negative goats) were analyzed. Reactors in the P22 ELISA were detected in a higher number of high-risk herds using both serum (87.5%) and individual milk (81.3%) compared to SITT (75.0%) and CITT (31.3%), while the use of BTM led to the detection of 33.3% of the herds. Individual apparent prevalence was higher using the P22 ELISA in both serum (11.0%) and milk (15.0%) compared to the SITT (6.8%) and CITT (2.5%), with also a significantly (
