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

The genome of rotaviruses consists of 11 segments of double-stranded RNA, and each genome segment has multiple genotypes. Thus, the genotype constellation of an isolate is often indicative of its host species. Albeit rarely, interspecies transmission occurs either by virions with nonreassorted or reassorted genomic segments. A rotavirus with the G6P[1] genotype, Ro8059, was isolated from the stool of a 1-year-old child during routine characterization of diarrheal specimens from a sentinel clinic in Israel in 1995. Since genotype G6P[1] is generally associated with bovine rotaviruses, and the child developed diarrhea within days of his first contact with calves at an urban farm, the aim of this study was to characterize the whole genomic constellation of Ro8059 and four G6P[1] bovine strains, BRV101, BRV105, BRV106, and CR231/39, by RNA-RNA hybridization and full genome sequencing to determine whether some or all of the segments were of bovine origin. The genome constellations of all four bovine G6P[1] strains were G6-P[1]-I2-R2-C2-M2-A3-N2-T6-E2-H3 for VP7-VP4-VP6-VP1-VP2-VP3-NSP1-NSP2-NSP3-NSP4-NSP5, respectively. Ro8059 shared the same genotype constellation with these bovine strains, with high nucleotide sequence identities (95.84 to 100%) for each of the 11 segments indicating that Ro8059 represented a direct interspecies whole-genome transmission of a nonreassorted rotavirus from a calf to a human infant. We conclude that this was the earliest example with a complete epidemiological link in which an entirely bovine rotavirus directly infected a human child and caused a symptomatic diarrheal illness. Thus, not all bovine rotaviruses are always naturally attenuated to the human host.
