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

objectiveExplore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of children with norovirus (NoV)-associated benign convulsions with mild gastroenteritis (CwG).

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the Clinical and laboratory data of children with NoV-associated CwG admitted to the emergency department of Guangzhou Children's Hospital between January 2019 and January 2020. And patients were followed up for 23-36 months.

resultsThere are 49 cases met the CwG criteria. Vomiting was the first symptom in 31 (63.3%) patients, and vomiting could be the main or the only gastrointestinal symptom. The mean frequency of seizures was 3.8 ± 2.4 episodes. Most patients (95.9%) experienced seizures that lasted for less than 5 min. Of the 43 (87.8%) cases followed up from 23 to 36 months, only one experienced recurrent convulsions (after rotavirus infection). SIGNIFICANCE: NoV-associated CwG patients were prone to experiencing more convulsions. However, because most NoV-associated CwG patients had good prognosis, long-term use of anticonvulsants are unnecessary.
