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

Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serotype Dublin is a cattle-adapted serotype that poses significant health risks to humans and calves. This study determined the prevalence of Salmonella dublin in milk from dairy cows in Algeria using real-time PCR and analyzed associated risk factors. Two hundred thirty milk samples from 31 cattle farms in the Khenchela region were analyzed using real-time PCR targeting the vagC gene. A questionnaire-based survey identified potential risk factors. Results showed S. dublin detection in 9.56% (22/230) of milk samples (95% CI: 5.76-13.37%). Risk factor analysis identified poorly maintained water troughs (OR = 3.43, P < 0.05) as significant factor and younger age (< 4 years, OR = 2.22, P < 0.05) as a tendency for S. dublin positivity. These findings indicate considerable presence of S. Dublin in bovine milk in Algeria, emphasizing transmission risks to humans and calves. Real-time PCR demonstrated high sensitivity and effectiveness for detection. The identification of significant risk factors provides important indicators for necessary preventive measures, including enhanced farm hygiene, milk quality monitoring, and safer calf feeding strategies.
