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

backgroundNoroviruses (NoVs) are a leading cause of viral diarrhea in young children. Secretor status has been confirmed to be linked with Norwalk virus (NoV GI.1) infection but there is limited information about whether secretor genotypes are associated with pediatric NoV epidemic strains in vivo.

methodsIn this study, fecal specimens and serum samples were collected from 124 hospitalized children with acute diarrhea in Xi'an, China. TaqMan real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to detect NoVs in fecal samples, and NoV-positive samples were further verified using conventional reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and sequenced. DNA was extracted from sera and TaqMan single-nucleotide polymorphism genotyping assay was applied to determine the FUT2 A385T polymorphism.

resultsOnly NoV GII.3 and GII.4 genotypes were found in NoV-positive samples, and NoVs were detected in 25% (15/60), 40.5% (17/42) and 9.1% (2/22) of children with homozygous secretor genotype (Se 385 Se 385), heterozygous secretor genotype (Se 385 se 385) and homozygous weak secretor genotype (se 385 se 385), respectively. Children with secretor genotypes Se 385 Se 385 and Se 385 se 385 were significantly (P < 0.05) more susceptible to combined NoV GII.3 and GII.4 infections than children with weak secretor genotype se 385 se 385.

conclusionsThese findings indicate that secretor positivity is significantly associated with GII.3 and GII.4 infections in Chinese pediatric diarrheal disease and the weak secretor phenotype does not completely protect children from GII.3 and GII.4 infections.
