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

backgroundRotavirus A (RVA) and adenovirus (Adv) are important causes of acute diarrhea in children. RVAs are classified into G and P genotypes based on viral proteins (VP)7 and VP4 gene and Adv contains over 70 genotypes based on hexon and fiber gene. This study aimed to characterize the molecular epidemiology of RVA and Adv in children with acute diarrhea during 2017-2018 in Hangzhou.

methodsThe stool samples were collected and tested for RVA and Adv by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) assay. The RVA positive samples were detected by RT-PCR for VP7(G) and VP4([P]) genotypes, and the Adv positive samples were detected by PCR for genotyping by the target to hexon gene.

resultsAmong 228 RVA-positive samples, G9 was detected as the most frequent genotype (195/228, 85.5%), followed by G3 (20/228, 8.8%), G2 (7/228, 3.1%) and G1 (6/228, 2.6%). G9 strains were closely related to strains from China and neighboring countries, as well as the USA. On the other hand, P[8] strains were detected in 219 (96.1%) samples with most closely related to one strain from Malawi, and P[4] in 9 (3.9%) samples. G9P[8] (84.6%, 193/228) was the most prevalent rotavirus A strains, followed by G3P[8] (8.8%, 20/228), G2P[4] (3.1%, 7/228), G1P[8] (2.6%, 6/228) and G9P[4] (0.9%, 2/228). Of 167 Adv-positive cases, 2 different genotypes were identified with 152 (91.0%) of Adv-41and 15 (9%) of Adv-40. All Adv strains were closely related to prototype strains of Adv types 40 and 41 in India.

conclusionsG9P[8] of RVA and Adv-41 were the most common genotypes that caused children's acute diarrhea in Hangzhou, 2017-2018.
