Upward Trends of Parotitis and Mumps in Atlanta over a Decade.
Article in Global pediatric health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Rising rates of mumps in Georgia have been reported. We hypothesize that the incidence of parotitis and mumps presenting to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA) has increased over the past decade among immunized children. Retrospective chart reviews were conducted using ICD9/10-codes for parotitis and mumps from January 2007 to December 2017. Data on demographics, vaccination status, labs, management and disposition were collected. 1017 parotitis cases were diagnosed; an upward trend in incidence occurred over time. Mumps testing was done in 47 (4.6%) parotitis cases; 9 mumps cases were identified, with 6 diagnosed in 2017. Seven patients (78%) were fully vaccinated. Median age for mumps was 13 years. Few symptoms differentiate mumps from non-mumps-parotitis. The incidence of parotitis and mumps in children has increased since 2007 in the Atlanta area, reflecting a nationwide trend. Mumps is likely underreported as rates of testing are low, and should be considered in children with parotitis regardless of vaccination history.
