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 norovirus is a major virus that causes acute gastroenteritis in all age groups. Recently, norovirus recombinant strains have been reported as the cause of norovirus outbreaks. This study has investigated the distribution of norovirus genotypes and recombinant strains circulating in children hospitalized with diarrhea in Chiang Mai, Thailand from 2017 to 2018. A total of 882 stool specimens were tested for the presence of norovirus GI and GII by reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assay. Genotypes of the viruses were assessed by partial VP1 nucleotide sequencing and the representative strains were further characterized for norovirus recombinant strains by amplification of ORF1 (RdRp)/ORF2 (VP1 capsid) junction region. From a total of 882 stool samples, 131 (14.9%) were positive for norovirus, of which the majority of norovirus genogroups were norovirus GII, and only one was identified as norovirus GI. A wide variety of norovirus genotypes were detected in this study, including GI.5, GII.2, GII.3, GII.4, GII.6, GII.7, GII.13, GII.14, and GII.17 with the predominance of GII.2 (62.5%) in 2017 and GII.4 (57.0%) in 2018. Nevertheless, it should be noted that GII.4 remained the most predominant genotype (50.4%) in overall prevalence. Analysis of norovirus recombination revealed that several norovirus recombinant strains (GII.2[P16], GII.3[P16], GII.4[P16], GII.4[P31], GII.6[P7], GII.13[P16], and GII.14[P7]) had been identified with the predominance of GII.2[P16] in 2017 and changed to GII.4[P16] and GII.4[P31] in 2018. In conclusion, this study reported the detection of a wide variety of norovirus genotypes and several norovirus recombinant strains in Chiang Mai, Thailand from 2017 to 2018.
