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

Cutavirus (CuV) is a novel protoparvovirus possibly associated with diarrhea and cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. Patients with rheumatic disease are immunosuppressed and may be more vulnerable to pathogenic viruses. A descriptive study was conducted among hospitalized patients with rheumatic diseases and individuals undergoing medical health check-ups between June 2019 and June 2022 in Guangzhou, China. Stool samples of subjects were tested for CuV DNA. Demographic and fecal examination data of patients were obtained from electronic medical records. A total of 505 patients with rheumatic diseases and 244 individuals who underwent medical health check-ups were included in the study. Of the patients with rheumatic disease, 5.74% [95% confidence interval (CI): 4.03%-8.12%] were positive for CuV DNA, while no individual in the medical health check-up group was positive, indicating a close correlation between CuV and rheumatic disease. Men and patients with rheumatoid arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis, according to the disease classification, were more susceptible to being infected with CuV (P ​< ​0.01). After adjustments, being male remained the only significant factor, with an adjusted odd ratio (OR) of 4.4 (95% CI: 1.7-11.4, P ​= ​0.002). Phylogenetic analysis of the CuV VP2 sequences showed three diverse clades, one of which was segregated to be a single branching independent of previously known sequences, which is possible a new genotype.
