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

Accurate diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) remains a critical challenge for disease control and eradication programs. While cell-mediated immune (CMI) response tests such as the comparative cervical intradermal tuberculin test (CCITT) are widely used, their sensitivity is limited, especially in later stages of infection. Antibody-based assays, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), may offer complementary detection and improve case identification. This study aimed to comparatively evaluate two indirect ELISA tests for the detection of antibodies against
