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

We sequenced 22 VP6 genes from common rotavirus strains P[8], G1; P[4], G2; P[8], G3; P[8], G4 and P[8], G9 and uncommon type P[6], G9 collected in the US over a 6-year period. All strains defined as members of VP6 antigenic subgroup (SG) I according to reactivity patterns with monoclonal antibodies formed a genetic cluster (Genogroup I) with SG I reference strains. Similarly, all strains in antigenic SGII formed a group (Genogroup II) with corresponding standard strains of the same SG. Most US strains of each genogroup had diverged by 10-15% from the VP6 gene sequence of reference strains collected >20 years earlier and some recent isolates from other countries. Evolutionary analysis demonstrated that recently isolated US strains of both genogroups have diverged into 2-3 related clusters consistent with other recent findings. Unexpectedly, some recent isolates from other countries have diverged greatly from both older reference isolates and from the recent US isolates characterized here. This finding suggests that genetic diversity in human rotavirus VP6 genes may be greater than previously recognized. These sequences will help in the construction of a VP6 gene database to aid in the development of broadly reactive molecular assays and permit identification of regions where primers and probes for existing assays may need to be redesigned.
