Enhanced Immunogenicity and Distinct Local Tissue Responses of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 Vaccination in Pigs Using a Needle-Free Jet Injection System.
Article in Veterinary sciences, 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
Conventional needle-based vaccination may cause tissue injury and increase the risk of cross-contamination between animals. This study evaluated the immunological effects of delivering an inactivated porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) vaccine using a needle-free jet injection system compared with needle injection in pigs. Immune responses were assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for PCV2-specific antibody levels on days 7, 14, and 28 post-vaccination. Cellular architecture at injection sites and differential gene expression were analyzed using immunohistochemistry and transcriptome sequencing. Results showed that pigs receiving needle-free vaccination at 0.50 mL and 0.75 mL injection volumes exhibited higher PCV2-specific antibody responses than pigs receiving 1.0 mL needle injection. Needle-free vaccination also preserved dermal collagen fiber architecture, altered antigen-presenting cell distribution, and was associated with distinct activation of immune-related pathways, particularly those involved in leukocyte migration and cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions. These findings indicate that needle-free vaccination was associated with distinct PCV2-specific antibody responses and local immune microenvironment changes, supporting its potential as an alternative vaccine delivery strategy for swine PCV2 vaccination.
