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

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is an important infectious pathogen responsible for substantial economic losses in the global cattle industry. The structural protein E2 serves as a major protective antigen of BVDV and is the main target for host neutralizing immune responses. However, its antigenic structure and epitope distribution remain poorly understood. Here, five novel monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the E2 protein of BVDV-1 were generated using hybridoma technology, and their reactivity patterns, biological properties, and recognized epitopes were systematically characterized. As a result, one mAb, TBH033, specifically reacted with BVDV, while four mAbs, TBH002, TBH004, TBH008, and TBH009, exhibited broad-spectrum reactivity against different subgenotypes of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) and BVDV, as well as E2 proteins from eight pestivirus species (BVDV-1, BVDV-2, BVDV-3, CSFV, BDV, PPeV, GPeV, and ovIT PeV). All five mAbs exhibited high binding affinity to the E2 protein and potent cross-neutralizing activity against BVDV strains of different subgenotypes. Epitope mapping with chimeric recombinant and site-mutated E2 proteins revealed that TBH002, TBH004, TBH008, and TBH009 recognized a linear epitope in the DA domain, comprising
