Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus Across Asia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Prevalence in Cattle Population Between 2000 and 2025.
Synthesis in Veterinary medicine and 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
backgroundBovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) is a highly contagious and vertically transmitted pathogen that poses a significant economic threat to cattle herds worldwide.
objectivesThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the overall prevalence and identify associated risk factors of BVDV in Asian countries between 2000 and 2025.
methodsArticles published within the specified time periods were retrieved by searching multiple databases. A random-effects meta-analysis and meta-regression model were performed to analyse the datasets.
resultsA total of 133 articles from 22 Asian countries reported the prevalence of BVDV in cattle. Based on data from 160,042 cattle, the pooled seroprevalence was estimated at 40.50%, while antigen prevalence, derived from 44,636 cattle, was 9.0%. Among the five Asian regions, a higher antigen and seroprevalence of BVDV was recorded from East (10.30% and 53.10%, respectively) and West Asia (10.80% and 49.0%, respectively). At the country level, high seroprevalence of BVDV was reported in China (62.90%), Turkey (58.00%), Iran (47.90%) and Indonesia (44.10%), while high active-infection rates were observed in China (19.20%), Iraq (17.40%) and South Korea (16.90%). In the antibody dataset, the prevalence varied significantly across regional categories and economic status. In contrast, in the antigen dataset, significant differences were observed across regional categories, sample types and study-design subgroups. This meta-analysis revealed that animal-level antigen and antibody prevalence vary across all regions of Asia.
conclusionsThe findings emphasize the need for region-specific, targeted control strategies, especially in dairy herds at high risk of active infection, to mitigate the spread and epidemiological impact of BVDV.
