Field investigation of bovine leukemia virus:
Article in Journal of veterinary science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
importanceEnzootic bovine leukosis, caused by bovine leukemia virus (BLV), is associated with persistent lymphocytosis, lymphosarcoma development, and reduced herd productivity. In Korea, nationwide BLV prevalence data are limited, and its contribution to dairy herd problems remains unclear.
objectiveTo investigate prevalence of BLV and its association with hematological alterations in targeted dairy farms experiencing productivity issues in Korea.
methodsThis study investigated five dairy farms reporting decreased milk yield, recurrent mastitis, poor conception rates, and delayed postpartum recovery. Eighty lactating cows underwent physical examination, body condition scoring, hematological and biochemical analyses, and polymerase chain reaction testing for BLV.
resultsOverall BLV detection rate among these herds was 70% (56/80), with intra-herd positivity ranging from 57.1 to 90.0%. Lymphocytosis was observed in 31% of the cows. Multivariable generalized estimating equations analysis confirmed that higher lymphocyte counts were the strongest independent predictor of BLV status (adjusted odds ratio, 2.70; CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: BLV infection is highly prevalent in the investigated Korean dairy farms with productivity problems. While these results may not represent the nationwide average due to selection bias, they emphasize the need for nationwide BLV surveillance and implementation of control measures in Korea.
