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
This study focuses on epidemiological characteristics and genetic evolution of rotavirus (RV) isolated from sika deer in Jilin Province, China. The objective is to determine the positivity rate and genotypes of rotavirus circulating in diarrheic sika deer fawns. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) targeting the rotavirus VP6 gene was utilized to detect positive samples from the collected diarrheal samples. The positive samples were subjected to genotyping by amplification of the VP4 and VP7 genes, and then phylogenetic analysis was conducted to analyze the genetic diversity of the virus. As a result, 230 samples tested positive out of 438 diarrheic samples, resulting in a positivity rate of 52.5% in diarrheic samples. The genotyping analysis showed that the genotypes G6, G10, and G8 accounted for 70.59%, 26.47%, and 2.94%, respectively; while types P[1], P[11] and P[14] occupied 42.59%, 37.03% and 20.3%, respectively. Seven genotypic combinations were identified, with G6P[1] (34%) and G6P[11] (30%) being the most dominant. The successfully isolated SY-73 (G8P[1]) strain clustered with bovine RV strains, demonstrating the genetic diversity and recombination traits of the deer-derived RV. It was shown that the isolated SY-73 (G8P[1]) strain caused diarrhea in suckling mice, confirming its pathogenicity. Histopathological analysis further revealed intestinal lesions in infected mice, including villus atrophy and epithelial damage, supporting its in vivo pathogenic effects. This study indicates a relatively high infection rate of rotavirus in sika deer in the studied regions, characterized by complex and variable genotype combinations, with the potential for cross-species transmission.
