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

introductionThis study explored transmission patterns of brucellosis in Hubei Province, a Class II region in China, through analysis of spatiotemporal distribution and environmental factors to provide evidence for precise prevention.

methodsWe analysed epidemiological data from Hubei Province (2010-2023), including human cases, demographics, livestock numbers and environmental factors. The MaxEnt model was used for spatial risk prediction, while the seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model analysed temporal patterns and warning effectiveness.

resultsHuman brucellosis showed a 'rapid rise-effective control-local rebound' pattern, with incidence rates rising from 0.0087/100,000 (2010) to 0.5932/100,000 (2015), declining to 0.1535/100,000 (2019) and rebounding to 0.4508/100,000 (2023). The epidemic displayed seasonal peaks (April-September) and affected primarily males (71.13%) and farmers (76.54%). Spatial distribution showed a 'high-north low-south' pattern, spreading from Suizhou to neighbouring areas. The MaxEnt model identified high-risk areas (probability ≥ 0.713) in livestock-intensive regions, with sheep density (55.1%) and annual mean temperature (9.9%) as key factors. The SARIMA model indicated earliest warnings in high-risk areas (mid-late April), followed by medium-risk (early-mid April) and low-risk areas (late May).

conclusionsBrucellosis transmission in Hubei is influenced by the livestock industry, control measures and climate. The integrated MaxEnt-SARIMA model provides risk classification and differentiated warning schemes, offering guidance for targeted prevention across different risk areas.
