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) is a highly contagious disease of pigs caused by the African swine fever virus (ASFV), posing a significant threat to global swine production. As an obligate intracellular parasite, ASFV relies on host metabolic networks to fulfill its replication requirements. However, the precise mechanisms by which it manipulates nucleotide metabolism remain unclear. In this study, untargeted metabolomic analysis of ASFV-infected porcine alveolar macrophages revealed significant perturbations in purine and pyrimidine metabolism, glycolysis, the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), and the glutamate and aspartate metabolic pathways. Functional validation demonstrated that ASFV depends on
