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
objectiveTo report epidemiology of rotavirus gastroenteritis among under-five children hospitalized for acute diarrhea after the introduction of vaccine in Madhya Pradesh.
methodsChildren hospitalized for diarrhea between August 2017 and December 2019 were recruited. Stool sample was collected and shipped to Christian Medical College (CMC), Vellore maintaining proper cold chain. Samples were then screened for rotavirus using enzyme immunoassay (EIA). The samples that were positive for rotavirus were further genotyped by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
resultsOf the 794 stool samples collected, 150 (18.8%) samples were positive for rotavirus. Highest positivity was seen in winter months and in children less than 2 y of age. G3P[8] was found to be the most prevalent serotype.
conclusionsThe study highlights lowering prevalence of rotavirus gastroenteritis in the authors' region post vaccine introduction. It also highlights the change in prevalent serotypes.
