Rotavirus vaccination and intussusception: a paradigm shift?
Article in Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 (RV) is one of the leading causes of severe childhood gastroenteritis in children <5 years of age. Several countries have successfully implemented vaccination against RV disease; however, hesitancy to include RV vaccination in the national immunization program exists and relates, among other reasons, to the results of international post-licensure studies of RV vaccines that established an increased risk of intussusception (IS) in infants following immunization. IS is one of the major causes of bowel obstruction in infants between 4 and 10 months of age. Some studies have investigated the etiology of IS, including the role of natural RV infection and available evidence suggests that RV disease may be an independent risk factor for IS. In this regard, the benefit-risk profile of RV vaccination, which is recognized as positive, could potentially turn out to be even more favorable in preventing IS cases triggered by RV disease. However, further research is prompted to quantify the IS risk attributable to RV disease.
