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

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the major causative agent of porcine circovirus-associated disease. We investigated the dynamics of maternally derived anti-PCV2 antibodies (MDA) in 40 piglets born to five healthy, unvaccinated sows on a Japanese swine farm. Anti-PCV2 antibody levels were measured by ELISA from birth to 19 days of age and analyzed together with serum total protein and IgG concentrations. Data were stratified by sow, and uncertainty was estimated using sow-cluster bootstrap analysis. The S/P ratio increased after colostrum intake, peaked at 1-3 days of age, and then declined exponentially until day 19. These findings characterize pre-vaccination anti-PCV2 MDA kinetics and indicate that serum total protein at birth may reflect passive immune status.
