High Prevalence of Rotavirus A in Raw Sewage Samples from Northeast Spain.
Article in Viruses, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Rotavirus A (RVA) is the most common virus associated with infantile gastroenteritisworldwide, being a public health threat, as it is excreted in large amounts in stool and can persist inthe environment for extended periods. In this study, we performed the detection of RVA and humanadenovirus (HAdV) by TaqMan qPCR and assessed the circulation of RVA genotypes in threewastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) between 2015 and 2016 in Catalonia, Spain. RVA wasdetected in 90% and HAdV in 100% of the WWTP samples, with viral loads ranging between 3.96 ×104 and 3.30 × 108 RT-PCR Units/L and 9.51 × 104 and 1.16 × 106 genomic copies/L, respectively. RVAVP7 and VP4 gene analysis revealed the circulation of G2, G3, G9, G12, P[4], P[8], P[9] and P[10].Nucleotide sequencing (VP6 fragment) showed the circulation of I1 and I2 genotypes, commonlyassociated with human, bovine and porcine strains. It is important to mention that the RVA strainsisolated from the WWTPs were different from those recovered from piglets and calves living in thesame area of single sampling in 2016. These data highlight the importance of monitoring watermatrices for RVA epidemiology and may be a useful tool to evaluate and predict possibleemergence/reemergence of uncommon strains in a region.
