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

Dogs have not typically been considered natural hosts for influenza viruses. However, two canine influenza subtypes, H3N8 and H3N2, have been associated with infection in this species, posing a potential zoonotic threat. In this study, a serological investigation was conducted to assess the seroprevalence of human seasonal influenza viruses (type A and B), as well as canine and avian influenza A viruses, and the H7N1 virus, in a population of adult household dogs. A total of 256 serum samples were analysed by the hemagglutination inhibition and virus neutralization assays. The seroprevalence rates were 0.78% and 77.34% for human seasonal H1N1 and H3N2 influenza viruses; 0.39% for both the B Yamagata and B Victoria lineages; and 1.17% for H7N1 virus. None of the samples tested positive for avian or canine viruses. These findings suggest that household dogs can be exposed to human seasonal influenza viruses, emphasizing the importance of continued surveillance of influenza viruses within canine populations.
