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

Tilapia are susceptible to a number of viral diseases that have a severe economic impact in many countries. During a mass mortality event in lakes in central-western Gabon in 2019, the first rhabdoviruses infecting tilapia were identified. Two distinct and nearly complete viral genome sequences were obtained by combining whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and Sanger sequencing of amplicons. The two viruses, which we have named "tilapia rhabdovirus 1" (TiRV1) and "tilapia rhabdovirus 2" (TiRV2), were found coinfecting a single fish. These viruses are related to, but clearly distinct from, members of the subfamily Alpharhabdovirinae. The respective roles of TiRV1 and TiRV2 in the present disease outbreak remain to be clarified. Further studies are needed to evaluate whether these viruses pose a threat to the health of this fish species throughout the region.
