Human bocaviruses are commonly found in stools of hospitalized children without causal association to acute gastroenteritis.
Article in European journal of pediatrics, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 papers.
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.
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
unlabelledHuman bocaviruses (HBoVs) may be grouped into respiratory (HBoV1) and enteric (HBoV2-4) types. We examined this association of HBoV types and clinical symptoms in 955 children who had acute gastroenteritis (AGE, n = 172), acute respiratory tract infection (ARTI, n = 545) or symptoms of both (n = 238). Both nasal swab and stool specimens were studied for such patients. HBoV1 DNA was detected in 6.2 % of patients with ARTI and 9.2 % of patients with symptoms of both ARTI and AGE, but in only 1.7 % of patients with AGE alone. In about one half of the cases, HBoV1 was detected concomitantly in nasal swab and stool samples. HBoV2 was found in stool samples of patients with AGE (5.8 %), ARTI (5.1 %) and symptoms of both (5.5 %) but only rarely in nasal swabs. HBoV3 was found in the stools, but not in nasal swabs, in 0.6, 1.1 and 0.8 % of patients with, respectively, AGE, ARTI and both. HBoV4 was not found. All but one HBoV-positive stool sample of AGE patients contained a known gastroenteritis virus (rotavirus, norovirus, sapovirus, astrovirus or enteric adenovirus) that was probably responsible for the symptoms of the respective case. Sera of 30 HBoV-positive patients were available, and IgM antibodies for HBoVs were found in ten cases and HBoV DNA in eight of these.
conclusionsHBoV2 and HBoV3 were more commonly found in stool than in nasal swab samples, but the findings could not be causally linked with AGE. HBoV1 was commonly found in stool samples during ARTI, with or without gastrointestinal symptoms.
