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 1999, the costs of gastroenteritis in the Netherlands were estimated using data on hospitalizations from national registries, together with data on etiology and self-reported data on health care resource use in a community-based study. Now, more information on hospitalizations is available and these data were used to update the total costs of gastroenteritis in the Netherlands. The costs of severe gastroenteritis in the Netherlands were estimated in more depth using a hospital-based study, with patient questionnaires including a follow-up period of 6 months. The overall costs of gastroenteritis were calculated taking direct medical costs, direct non-medical costs, and indirect non-medical costs into account. The costs for severe gastroenteritis in 2009 were estimated at <euro>2,203 per hospitalized child and <euro>6,834 per hospitalized adult. The overall costs of gastroenteritis in 2009 were estimated at <euro>611-695 million, which is <euro>133-151 per gastroenteritis case or <euro>37-42 per inhabitant. The total health care costs for gastroenteritis were about 50% higher in 2009 compared to 1999, which is mostly due to the rise in health care costs. The costs per gastroenteritis episode in adults are higher compared to children, mainly due to differences in the reasons for hospitalization and course of disease, and productivity losses.
