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

objectivesTo investigate the clinical characteristics of children infected with the Omicron variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Chengdu of China.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted for the clinical data of 226 children who were infected with the Omicron variant of SARS-Cov-2 and were isolated and treated in Chengdu Shelter Hospital from August 28 to September 21, 2022. According to the presence or absence of clinical symptoms, they were divided into two groups: asymptomatic group and mild symptomatic group. The two groups were compared in terms of clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment, and prognosis.

resultsAmong the 226 children infected with the Omicron variant, 71 (31.4%) were asymptomatic and 155 (68.6%) had mild symptoms. Fever and cough were the most common clinical symptoms, with fever in 95 children (61.3%) and cough in 92 children (59.4%). Of all 226 children, 188 (83.2%) received coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. The time to nucleic acid clearance ranged from 6 to 26 days, with a nucleic acid clearance rate of 58.0% (131/226). There were no significant differences among different age groups in sex, early symptoms, clinical typing, nucleic acid re-positive rate, nucleic acid clearance rate, and length of hospital stay (

conclusionsChildren infected with the Omicron variant of SARS-Cov-2 in Chengdu generally have mild clinical symptoms, mainly upper respiratory tract infection, which has little threat to the health of children of different ages, and children tend to have a good overall prognosis.
