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

We developed a cohort model to evaluate the expected public health impact of accelerated regimens for immunization against rotavirus gastroenteritis (RVGE). Alternative strategies for vaccination with the pentavalent human-bovine reassortant vaccine, Rotateq(®) (RV5, Merck) and the oral live attenuated human rotavirus vaccine, Rotarix(®) (RV1, GlaxoSmithKline Vaccines) were considered, including acceleration of the 1st dose only (by 2 weeks) as well as acceleration of the 1st (by 2 weeks) and subsequent doses (by up to 10 weeks). Assuming vaccine coverage levels consistent with current US clinical practice, accelerated regimens would be expected to reduce annual numbers of RVGE-related hospitalizations by 300-400, emergency department visits by 3000-4000, and outpatient visits by 3000-4000 (i.e., by 9-14%) among US children aged <6 months. Accordingly, accelerating the immunization of children against RVGE may yield substantive reductions in the number of RV-related encounters in US clinical practice.
