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

This study aims to identify the role of various natural, socioeconomic, and demographic factors in the development of the African swine fever (ASF) epizootic among wild boar in the Russian Federation (RF) from 2007 to 2023. In this study, particular emphasis was placed on testing the significance of wild boar population density as a key factor contributing to the spread of ASF within this population. During the study period, 1711 outbreaks in wild boars were reported in the RF, accounting for 41.7% of all ASF outbreaks in the country. We tested two regression approaches to model the dependance of the total number of ASF outbreaks in second-level municipal units (districts) on a range of potential explanatory factors, including the dynamically changing annual population density of wild boar. We employed negative binomial regression (NBR) and, as an alternative approach, classification and regression trees (CARTs). The predictive capabilities of both models were evaluated using 10-fold cross-validation. One of the most significant identified factors was the number of ASF outbreaks in domestic populations, which may indicate a close coexistence of both domestic and wild ASF cycles. Population density showed limited significance in the negative binomial model (
