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

Chikungunya (CHIKV) reemerged in India after a gap of 32 years, in 2005-2006 and has established endemicity in Pune. To assess the degree of CHIKV exposure, we estimated age-stratified prevalence of IgG antibodies to CHIKV in Pune population. This retrospective study utilized age-stratified serum samples collected from 15 wards of Pune in 2017 for dengue (DENV) virus study. Indirect anti-CHIKV-IgG ELISA was developed and used to test 1904 samples. Exposure to CHIKV and DENV was compared in the same population. CHIKV-specific plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT) was employed to evaluate ELISA positivity and neutralizing potential of anti-CHIKV-IgG antibodies. Indirect ELISA showed 98.5% concordance with commercial ELISA. Seropositivity to CHIKV was 46.4%, one-third children < 15 years being antibody positive. A significant increase (45%, p = 0.026-0.038) was noted at 16-25 years and varied between 48 and 56% until the age 65. In elderly (65 + years), antibody positivity was reduced (41%, p = 0.01). In children, CHIKV-PRNT
