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

backgroundBased on the impact public health of norovirus and the current progress in norovirus vaccine development, it is necessary to continuously monitor the epidemiology of norovirus infection, especially in children who are more susceptible to norovirus.

objectivesTo monitor the activity and genotypes of norovirus infection in sporadic diarrhea in Shanghainese children during 2014-2018. STUDY

designAcute diarrheal cases were prospectively enrolled in the outpatient setting. Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used for screening norovirus GI and GII genogroups. Dual norovirus genotypes were identified based on the partial capsid and polymerase gene sequences.

resultsOf the 3422 children with diarrhea, 510 (14.9%) were positive for noroviruses with 13 (2.5%) strains being GI genogroup and 497 (97.5%) strains being GII genogroup. Five distinct capsid GII genotypes were identified, including GII.4-Sydney/2012 (71.8%), GII.3 (13.8%), GII.17 (7.8%), GII.2 (6.0%), GII.6 (0.3%) and GII.8 (0.3%). Seven polymerase GII genotypes were identified, including GII.Pe (77.0%), GII.P12 (11.0%), GII.P17 (9.0%), GII.P16 (2.1%), and GII.P7, GII.P8 and GII.P2 in each (0.3%). Eleven distinct polymerase/capsid genotypes were identified with GII.Pe/GII.4-Sydney/2012 (74.2%), GII.P12/GII.3 (11.7%) and GII.P17/GII.17 (7.7%) being common. GII.P17/GII.17 strains were detected since September 2014. Recombinant GII.P16/GII.2 strains were detected since December 2016.

conclusionsNorovirus is a major pathogen causing diarrhea in Shanghainese children. GII.Pe/GII.4-Sydney/2012 strains remained the predominant genotype. The emergence of GII.P17/GII.17 and GII.P16/GII.2 strains in sporadic diarrhea was consistent with norovirus-associated outbreaks attributable to these 2 novel variants in China. Continuous monitoring norovirus genotypes circulating in pediatric population is needed for current vaccine development.
