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

Assessing whether post mortem samples can provide value for monitoring during the post-weaning stages is necessary as this methodology can be adopted by the industry when resources are scarce. The objectives of this study are to assess pathogen detection in tongue tip fluids (TTFs), oronasal swabs (ONSs), rectal swabs (RSs), and superficial inguinal lymph nodes (SILNs). Two farms (one wean-to-finish farm and one finishing farm) undergoing a porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) outbreak were included, and 30 dead pigs were sampled during each farm visit. For PRRSV, the diagnostic accuracy of TTF, ONS, RS, and SILN were calculated using intracardiac serum as the gold standard. We also characterized the detection of PCV-2, PCV-3, PPV-1, PPV-2,
