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

In Taiwan, the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23) and the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) have been available since January 2001 and October 2005, respectively. A hospital-based surveillance of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in a medical center was conducted from 2000 to 2008 to evaluate the epidemiologic changes after pneumococcal vaccination. A total of 337 episodes in 328 patients were identified. The cumulative coverage rate of PPV23 among persons of age >or=75 years increased from 12% in 2007 to 41% in 2008, and that of PCV7 among children aged <5 years was 0.7% in 2005 and 25.2% in 2008. The annual incidence of IPD decreased from 6.2 cases per 10,000 hospitalizations in 2000-2005 to 3.8 cases in 2006-2008 (38.5% reduction, P < 0.001), but the fatality rate did not change significantly (24.4% and 21.8%, P = 0.74). The serotype coverage rates of PPV23 and PCV7 were not significantly different between 2000-2005 and 2006-2008 (both P > 0.05). A marked increase of serotype 19A from 2000-2005 (0.5%) to 2006-2008 (11.5%) was found (P < 0.001). In summary, a decline in IPD incidence but not in fatality rate occurred after the availability of PCV7 and the increased usage of PPV23. The rapid emergence of serotype 19A during this period is alarming.
