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

This study was carried out during July 2005-June 2006, to characterize rotaviruses circulating in Bangladeshi children less than 5 years attended a peri-urban hospital. The proportion of rotavirus diarrhea was 39.5%. Genotype G2 was dominant (45.5%) followed by G1 (24.8%), G12 (9.6%), G9 (8.5%), and G4 (2.1%). G2 were mainly in combination with P[4], G1 and G9 with P[8], and G12 with P[6]. Phylogenetically Bangladeshi G1, G2, and G12 were closely related with the respective types from India, whereas Bangladeshi G9s of lineage III were with strains from Belgium and Australia. A G9 strain of lineage IV was clustered with strains from Sri Lanka and Turkey. Compared with prototype rotaviruses, Bangladeshi strains showed several amino acid substitutions at the antigenic sites of VP7. This study showed that the generation of diverse strains continued as evidenced by long G2, short G1 and G9 strains, and various combinations of G and P types.
