Molecular Epidemiology, Phylogeography, and Recombination Dynamics of PRRSV-2 Sublineage L1C in Mainland China.

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
Since NADC30-like PRRSV-2 was first detected in Henan Province in 2012, it has continued to spread and has become one of the predominant PRRSV-2 groups in mainland China. However, the long-term spatiotemporal dynamics, interprovincial transmission patterns, transmission drivers and recombination associated evolutionary features of sublineage L1C (L1C; NADC30-like) remain incompletely resolved. Here, we analysed 9541 quality-controlled lineage 1 ORF5 sequences from 12 countries, including ORF5 sequences from 62 laboratory-derived complete genomes assigned to L1C. Globally, 3787 sequences were classified as L1C. Among the 1648 lineage 1 sequences from China, 1362 were assigned to L1C, accounting for 82.65% of Chinese lineage 1 sequences. Phylodynamic analysis dated the global common ancestor of L1C to around 2002 and suggested that strains circulating in mainland China were likely introduced from US-related strains around 2008. Before the African swine fever (ASF) outbreak, inferred interprovincial transmission links were concentrated in a limited number of key provinces. During the early ASF period, observable links decreased, but they subsequently recovered and expanded across more provinces. Transmission-driver analysis suggested that pig inventory and pig output were associated with stronger inferred interprovincial L1C transmission links, whereas geographic distance was associated with a spatial-decay effect. Whole-genome recombination analysis revealed extensive recombination signals in L1C genomes involving other PRRSV-2 lineages. Among inter-lineage associations, L8E (HP-PRRSV/JXA1-like) was the most frequently implicated background, followed by L5 and L3. These findings provide systematic evidence for the persistent prevalence, regional transmission and recombination-driven evolution of L1C in mainland China, and support molecular surveillance, regional risk warning and optimization of PRRSV-2 control strategies.
