Identification and Characterization of a Novel Linear B-Cell Epitope Within the ASFV pB602L Protein for Serological Diagnosis.
Article in Microorganisms, 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
African swine fever in both domestic and wild pig populations is caused by the extremely infectious African swine fever virus (ASFV). It seriously endangers biodiversity and results in large financial losses for the worldwide pork sector. The major capsid protein p72 is molecularly chaperoned by the ASFV pB602L protein, which is essential to viral assembly. Furthermore, as a nonstructural protein expressed at late stages of infection, pB602L induces a distinct antibody response that may complement existing serological assays based on structural proteins. Given its strong immunogenicity, pB602L represents a promising antigen for developing supplementary diagnostic tools for African swine fever (ASF). In this study, we successfully generated and separated the ASFV pB602L protein, and we verified its responsiveness using serum from pigs infected with ASFV. Additionally, we produced four monoclonal antibody-specific hybridoma cell lines that targeted the pB602L protein exclusively. These cell lines demonstrated high immunoreactivity and responsiveness toward ASFV pB602L. These results highlight the potential enhancement of diagnostic skills. We have detected two previously unknown linear B-cell epitopes (
