Severe Diarrhea Outbreaks in Newborn Piglets in China Associated With Porcine Rotavirus B.
Article in Transboundary and emerging diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Rotavirus B (RVB) is among the enteric pathogens that can cause gastroenteritis in humans and various animals. However, severe diarrhea in newborn piglets has rarely been reported to be linked to porcine RVB (PoRVB). From 2023 to 2024, outbreaks of newborn piglet diarrhea with 20%-50% morbidity and 4%-10% mortality occurred in three herds situated in Anhui, Liaoning, and Jilin provinces of China. Notably, all samples from these herds tested negative for porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV), PoRVA and transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV). To identify the causative pathogens of the severe diarrhea in newborn piglets, high-throughput sequencing (HTS) was performed on pooled and individual samples collected from each farm. The results revealed that there were 783,546-1,237,231 mammalian virus reads per pooled sample, with PoRVB being the overwhelmingly dominant virus. A high prevalence of PoRVB (83.3%-100%) was detected in all the affected farms, indicating the association between PoRVB strains and the outbreak of severe piglet diarrhea in the sampled farms.
