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

The World Health Organization (WHO) called the recent monkeypox (MPX) outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on July 23, 2022. The United States of America (US) alarmed the recent MPX outbreak as the US public health emergency on August 4, 2022. Since early May 2022, more than 35000 MPX cases and 12 deaths had been reported to WHO from 92 countries and territories by August 17, 2022, and MPX cases continue rising rapidly with improved surveillance, access to diagnosis, and continuous virus spreading globally. Approximately 99% MPX cases are men, of which 95% cases are men who have sex with man. No evidence of MPX being sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is found; however, a high percentage (25%) of concurrent STIs and frequent anogenital symptoms suggest transmission through local inoculation during close intimate contact or sexual activity. Many approaches including a comprehensive international vaccination strategy and adequate supplies are mandatory to prevent MPX pandemic. Education, vaccination, MPX scrutiny and careful monitoring, and crossborder collaborations with international sectors are practical strategy to contain MPX outbreaks. People are educated to reduce the risk of exposure and to reduce the number of sexual partners especially new ones, to avoid contacting travelers from epidemic regions or animals that may carry MPX virus, and avoid traveling to endemic areas.
