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

backgroundThis study aimed to identify the incidence rate of episodes diagnosed with influenza and the effects of age-period-cohort (APC) in Koreans.

methodsThe 2009-2018 National Health Insurance Research Database was used for analysis. All time-related claims connected relatively short window period in 100 days. The case definition was defined by all codes diagnosed with J09, J10, and J11. Calculation of the incidence rate and APC analysis adjusted income levels by insurance type, metropolitan city was performed to identify the characteristics of episodes diagnosed with influenza.

resultsIncidence rate by age and cohort gradually increased since 2014. The incidence rate of males aged 0-4 years was 171.02 and that of females was 173.31 in 2015-2016 season. In males, 29.19 in 1963 cohort and 243.79 in 2013 cohort were confirmed as high incidence rates in 2017-2018 season. In the females, a high incidence was confirmed in 1953-1967 cohort and 1978-1987 cohort, and the incidence was 251.38 in 2013-2017 cohort. APC effects showed a high relative risk in the infants, the pandemic influenza season in 2010 (1/7/2009 to 30/6/2010) and the adults of 1978-1987 cohort.

conclusionSince 2014, influenza outbreaks have been increasing every year. The start year of free vaccination decreased the incidence in infants and adults over 65 years of age but the incidence increased from the following year. Because influenza can be primarily prevented by vaccination, reinforcement of vaccination in infants may reduce the disease burden in their parents, and also the risk of infection caused by family transmission. A new vaccination strategy is needed to reduce the incidence and burden of diseases caused by influenza infection.
