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

African swine fever (ASFV) leads a highly contagious and lethal hemorrhagic disease, causing a huge economic loss to the global pig industry. Recently, lethal genotype I/II recombinants were isolated and characterized in China and Vietnam. To differentiate the three genotypes (I, II and I/II recombinants) of ASFV in China, a triplex quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay was developed by targeting B646L, A151R and MGF360-14L genes. The detection limitation for the A151R, MGF360-14L, and B646L genes were 10 copies/μl, demonstrating a high sensitivity. Meanwhile, no cross-reactivity was observed with nucleic acids from ASFV genotype I and II or other swine viruses, confirming a high specificity for this assay. The coefficient of assay variation was below 2%, indicating an excellent repeatability. Importantly, when piglets were challenged with ASFV genotype I/II recombinant virus, the method could be used to detect the virus shedding as early as 3 dpi. In summary, a highly sensitive and specific detection method was established, which holds significant potential for rapid diagnosis and early warning of ASFV genotype I/II recombinant infection.
