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

Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is widespread globally and causes economic losses in the cattle industry. Shandong Province plays a significant role in China's livestock industry, with an increasing importance in food of Holstein and Angus cattle. However, BLV prevalence in Holstein and Angus breeds in Shandong Province remains unclear. In particular, there are no reports of BLV prevalence of Angus cattle in field surveys worldwide. In this study, 613 samples from six large-scale farms (> 1000 heads per farm) in Binzhou and Weifang cities were screened for BLV antibodies (gp51) using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The samples included 303 Angus (beef) and 310 Holstein (dairy) cattle. All Angus breeding samples from the three farms were BLV-negative at both the animal- and herd-level prevalences. In contrast, 62 of 310 Holstein cattle (20.0%) from three dairy farms were positive for BLV antibodies. For example, 35/110 (31.8%), 19/100 (19.0%), and 8/100 (8.0%) samples from the D, E, and F farms, respectively, were BLV-positive. Notably, the animal- and herd-level prevalences for Holstein cattle exhibited 20% and 100% positivity, respectively. These findings offer significant insights into the BLV status of Holstein and Angus cattle in Shandong Province, China.
