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

backgroundPorcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the primary pathogen responsible for postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and related diseases, leading to significant economic losses in the global pig industry.

methodsThis study conducted a thorough epidemiological survey between 2022 and 2024, gathering 6600 samples from 24 large-scale pig farms in Hubei Province. On the basis of these findings, the immune response and economic benefits of two representative commercial PCV2 subunit vaccines, recombinant baculovirus CP08 and Ingelvac CircoFLEX

resultsThe results indicated no detection of viral antigens in sows; however, weaned piglets and fattening pigs presented high positivity rates, with 8-week-old nursery pigs identified as the peak period for infection. Both vaccines significantly improved average weight gain and reduced antigen positivity, with Ingelvac CircoFLEX

conclusionsThis study offers valuable scientific and practical guidance for PCV2 control strategies and vaccine selection in Hubei and comparable regions.
