Clade 2.3.4.4b H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza detected in wild bird feces, Eastern Mongolia, 2024.
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
importanceDespite ongoing intercontinental spread of clade 2.3.4.4b H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), surveillance data from Mongolia -- a critical junction between Central and East Asian migratory flyways -- remain scarce, leaving a gap in understanding how viruses move between northern breeding areas and southern wintering grounds.
objectiveWe aimed to detect and genetically characterize HPAI viruses in wild bird populations in Mongolia and assess their relationship with viruses circulating in East Asia.
methodsActive surveillance was conducted at Ganga Lake, Mongolia, in October 2024. A total of 352 wild bird fecal samples were collected and tested for AIVs. Viral isolates were subtyped, whole-genome sequenced, and phylogenetically analyzed. Host species was identified using c oxidase I barcoding.
resultsSixteen AIVs were isolated, including one clade 2.3.4.4b H5N1 HPAI virus (M9-3) from whooper swan feces. Genomic analysis revealed M9-3 had > 99% similarity with Korean and Japanese H5N1 isolates reported in late 2024 and undergone recent reassortment and disseminated through migratory flyways. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: This is the first detection of clade 2.3.4.4b H5N1 in Eastern Mongolia in a fecal sample during late autumn. These findings underscore Mongolia's importance as a sentinel location for interregional HPAI dissemination.
