A raw deal: the intersection of the immunocompromised cat, influenza, and a lapse of infection prevention and control measures.
Article in ASM case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The case report by Chen et al. (ASM Case Rep 1:e00134-25, 2025, https://doi.org/10.1128/asmcr.00134-25) importantly describes nosocomial transmission of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in an immunocompromised resident clinic cat. This case highlights several significant public health threats, starting with HPAI spillover from birds to cats, foxes, and cattle; probable HPAI infection due to contaminated commercially prepared raw pet foods; nosocomial infection of an immunocompromised animal; and lapses in infection prevention and control (IPC) measures. This case underscores the need for formal IPC guidelines or a risk assessment-based protocol for resident clinic or personal pets in veterinary settings. As the availability of and interest in using commercial raw pet foods increase, there is a need for education surrounding infectious disease risk, safe handling, and handwashing procedures for use of these products, as well as the potential risk for fecal shedding of important enteric pathogens. Further emphasizing the importance of IPC, nosocomial outbreaks caused by
