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

African swine fever (ASF) poses a catastrophic and ongoing threat to the global swine industry. The rapid intercontinental spread of ASF, compounded by the absence of licensed vaccines and the structural complexity of African swine fever virus (ASFV), renders disease control and eradication extraordinarily challenging. Serological diagnosis is central to long-term ASF surveillance and control, with current assays predominantly based on well-validated antigens such as p30 (CP204L), p54 (E183L), and p72 (B646L), which form the backbone of OIE/WOAH-recommended testing. To expand and complement this established diagnostic repertoire with additional, less-explored targets. In this study, three ASFV proteins, B169L, A151R, and KP177R, were identified through systematic bioinformatic screening and successfully expressed using a prokaryotic expression system. Three individual indirect ELISA methods were subsequently established, optimized, and comprehensively evaluated. All three assays demonstrated high specificity, with no cross-reactivity detected against antisera to PRRSV, CSFV, or PCV2. Intra-assay coefficients of variation (CVs) were below 6% and inter-assay CVs were below 8%, confirming excellent repeatability and reproducibility. These assays provide sensitive, specific, and practically deployable tools that expand the available options for ASF serological surveillance and may serve as useful complements to existing diagnostic methods in epidemiological investigations of this devastating disease.
