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

High pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) devastates the poultry industry worldwide due to its rapid spread, severe pathology, and high mortality in chickens. Why some infected birds survive while others die remains poorly understood. Here, we tracked early host transcriptomic responses (8-72 hours post-inoculation [hpi]) in the nasal turbinates and lungs of chickens infected with H7N1 HPAI virus. Chickens were classified as resilient or susceptible based on clinical signs, histopathological lesions, viral antigen detection, and viral shedding. Resilient chickens showed a distinct early transcriptional profile characterized by differential expression of genes related to MAPK signaling (CAV1), cell adhesion (ITGB1, PARVA), immune response (RELA), and antiviral response pathways (BID, CASP1, RAB2B). Critically, transcriptomic profiles of resilient birds differed markedly not only from susceptible birds but also from controls, consistent with viral exposure and an active host response. Our results suggest that the nasal mucosa is an important site in which early host responses are associated with divergent disease outcomes following HPAI viral infection.
