Detection of infectious agents in lungs of slaughtered pigs in association with cranioventral pulmonary consolidation.
Article in Journal of veterinary research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Respiratory diseases have a substantial impact on swine production worldwide. Understanding the relationship between gross lung lesions and the presence of infectious agents is crucial for developing effective disease control strategies that target both primary and secondary pathogens. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 22 pig farms in western Poland. Cranioventral pulmonary consolidation (CVPC) in slaughtered pigs was assessed, and 20 lung tissue samples were collected from each herd. The presence of common bacterial and viral respiratory pathogens was identified using PCR-based methods. Results: The disorder was observed in 79.3% (95% confidence interval 75.3-82.8) of slaughtered pigs across all examined herds. The most frequently detected pathogens at both the herd and individual animal levels were Conclusion: These findings highlight the multifactorial nature of respiratory infections in pigs. Effective control measures should consider the high prevalence of co-infections and their impact on lung lesion severity to improve overall herd health and productivity.
