Rotavirus infections: guidelines for treatment and prevention.
Review in Drugs, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
The classification of rotaviruses as well as the pathogenesis and the diagnosis of rotavirus infections are briefly reviewed. Treatment of rotavirus disease consists mainly of oral or intravenous rehydration, using World Health Organization-recommended oral rehydration solutions or lactated Ringer's solutions, respectively. Specific antivirals have been tried in animal models but are not used for human treatment at present. The epidemiology of rotaviruses is complex as at any one time and in any geographical area different types co-circulate. The development of rotavirus candidate vaccines is reviewed, one of which, the tetravalent, rhesus rotavirus-based human reassortant vaccine, was licensed for universal use in the US in 1998. Its implementation requires careful surveillance of co-circulating rotavirus types (molecular epidemiology) as well as of any potential adverse effects not previously detected.
