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

Introduction: The outbreak of African swine fever (ASF) has led to a sharp increase in the price of hogs, accelerating the capitalization process of the hog industry and causing China's hog industry to enter a "super hog cycle," which has attracted much attention. Methods: Based on this, to clarify the mechanism of ASF on the capitalization of hog farming and enrich the relevant theoretical research, this paper uses panel data from 30 provinces in China from 2013 to 2023, and adopts the difference-in-differences model (DID) and the moderation effect model to analyze the impact of the epidemic outbreak on the capitalization of pig farming, providing a new perspective for exploring the influencing factors of hog farming capitalization. Results and discussion: The research found that ASF significantly accelerated the capitalization process of hog farming. This conclusion remained valid after undergoing a series of robustness tests. Moreover, the improvement of industrial agglomeration degree and the strengthening of government support would have a significant positive regulatory effect on it. Heterogeneity analysis revealed that in regions with high agricultural capital stock and non-feed-producing areas, the positive impact of ASF on the capitalization process of hog farming was more significant. Based on this, the article proposed policy suggestions such as strengthening the epidemic prevention and control system, preventing excessive expansion of hog production capacity, coordinating efforts through multiple channels to enhance the capitalization level of the hog industry, and promoting the high-quality development of the hog industry.
