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

An outbreak of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) has been observed in Taiwan since August 2020. We reviewed a central laboratory-based surveillance network established over 20 years by Taiwan Centres for Disease Control for respiratory viral pathogens between 2010 and 2020.A retrospective study of children <5 years old hospitalized with RSV infection at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital between 2018 and 2020 was conducted, and samples positive for RSV-A were sequenced. Clinical data were obtained and stratified by genotype and year.Data from 2020 showed an approximately 4-fold surge in RSV cases compared to 2010 in Taiwan, surpassing previous years during which ON1 was prevalent. Phylogenetic analysis of G protein showed that novel ON1 variants were clustered separately from those of 2018 and 2019 seasons and ON1 reference strains. The variant G protein carried six amino acid changes that emerged gradually in 2019; high consistency was observed in 2020. A unique substitution, E257K, was observed in 2020 exclusively. The F protein of the variant carried T12I and H514N substitutions, which weren't at antigenic sites. In terms of multivariate analysis, age (OR: 0.97; 95% CI: 0.94-0.99;
