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

Human noroviruses are the leading global cause of viral gastroenteritis. Attempts at developing effective vaccines and treatments against norovirus disease have been stymied by the extreme genetic diversity and rapid geographic distribution of these viruses. The emergence and replacement of predominantly circulating norovirus genotypes has primarily been attributed to mutations on the VP1 capsid protein leading to genetic drift, and more recently to recombination events between the ORF1/ORF2 junction. However, large-scale research into the historical and geographic distribution of recombinant norovirus strains has been limited in the literature. We performed a comprehensive historical analysis on 30,810 human norovirus sequences submitted to public databases between the years 1995 and 2019. During this time, 37 capsid genotypes and 56 polymerase types were detected across 90 different countries, and 97 unique recombinant genomes were also identified. GII.4, both capsid and polymerase, was the predominately circulating type worldwide for the majority of this time span, save for a brief swell of GII.17 and GII.2 capsid genotypes and a near-total eclipse by GII.P16, GII.P21 and GII.P31 beginning in 2013. Interestingly, an analysis of 4067 recombinants found that 50.2% (N = 2039) of all recorded sequences belonged to three recently emerged recombinant strains: GII.2[P16], GII.4[P31], and GII.4[P16]. This analysis should provide an important historical foundation for future studies that evaluate the emergence and distribution of noroviruses, as well as the design of cross-protective vaccines.
