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

Introduction: Duck circovirus (DuCV) is a contagious immunosuppressive pathogen in duck populations, causing severe economic losses in the global waterfowl breeding industry. Shandong Province is a major duck-producing region in China, with one of the country's largest duck populations. Methods: In this study, we systematically investigated the prevalence, genetic characteristics, and major proteins of DuCV strains found in Shandong Province. A total of 630 cloacal swab samples were collected from more than 60 duck farms across 17 cities of Shandong province in 2023. Duck circovirus and other common duck pathogens were detected by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method. Whole-genome sequencing was further performed to acquire three representative complete DuCV genome sequences, followed by comprehensive phylogenetic and genotypic analyses. Results: The positive rate for duck circovirus was 12.54% (79/630), with variation in detection rates among the sampled cities. Conclusion: This study provides updated epidemiological survey data and genetic information on DuCV in Shandong Province, China, which provides reference data for further research on the prevention and control of DuCV infection.
