Pathogens detected from patients with acute respiratory infections negative for SARS-CoV-2, Saitama, Japan, 2020.

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.
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
Objective: During the coronavirus disease pandemic in Japan, all patients with respiratory symptoms were initially tested for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This study describes the respiratory pathogens detected from patients who tested negative for SARS-CoV-2 at the Saitama Institute of Public Health from January to December 2020. Methods: We performed pathogen retrieval using multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction on samples from patients with acute respiratory diseases who tested negative for SARS-CoV-2 in Saitama in 2020 and analysed the results by age and symptoms. Results: There were 1530 patients aged 0-104 years (1727 samples), with 14 pathogens detected from 213 patients (245 samples). Most pathogens were human metapneumovirus (25.4%, 54 cases), rhinovirus (16.4%, 35 cases) and Discussion: Multiple respiratory pathogens were circulating during 2020 in Saitama, including SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses. We suggest introducing a system that can comprehensively monitor the regional prevalence of all viruses that cause acute respiratory infections.
