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

To investigate the current epidemic status of dominant Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus (PEDV) strains and the genetic evolution characteristics of their S proteins in China, as well as to explore strategies for enabling suckling piglets in PED-affected farms to acquire effective maternal antibody protection, this study conducted S gene sequencing on PEDV isolates collected from two epidemic cases, followed by phylogenetic analysis and homology-based three-dimensional modeling. Meanwhile, the titers of IgA and IgG in the PEDV-specific immune response were tracked and analyzed by employing different immunization regimens. The results showed that phylogenetic analysis allowed the identification of distinct variations in the major antigenic epitope CO-26 K equivalent (COE) region and the predicted N-glycosylation sites of the S protein. Additionally, the differences in the spatial conformation of the COE region might also account for the inadequate protection of pig herds against G2c strain infection conferred by commercial vaccines that do not contain the G2c strain. Furthermore, feedback immunization combined with inactivated tissue vaccine-based sow booster immunization during gestation could induce high levels of PEDV-specific IgA antibodies, and continuous gestation-stage booster immunization with inactivated tissue vaccines was crucial for maintaining such high antibody titers. Collectively, the findings of this study provide a reference for the establishment of high-level PED maternal antibody protection in pig herds.
