RNase Hybridization-Assisted Amplification (RHAM) Technology: A High-Sensitivity, Field-Deployable Alternative to Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction for the Rapid Detection of African Swine Fever Virus.
Article in Veterinary sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
African Swine Fever (ASF) control is severely limited by a diagnostic gap, as laboratory-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is highly sensitive but slow, whereas field-deployable immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) are rapid but unreliable. To address this limitation, this study evaluated a novel, rapid isothermal assay, RNase hybridization-assisted amplification (RHAM), as a high-sensitivity, point-of-need diagnostic solution. This study compared the performance of RHAM and a conventional p72-based ICA against the qPCR reference standard using 106 diverse clinical field samples, including oral swabs, blood, serum, and organs, collected from suspected ASF cases in Thailand. The ICA exhibited markedly low diagnostic performance, achieving only 56.76% sensitivity and showing moderate agreement (κ = 0.421) with qPCR, highlighting the need for a more reliable alternative. In contrast, the RHAM assay achieved 94.59% sensitivity and 96.88% specificity, providing results rapidly within 35 min. This statistically superior performance (McNemar's test,
