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

Background: Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging tick-borne disease caused by Methods: We prospectively enrolled 70 patients with SFTS from July 2015 to June 2022. Serial plasma samples were obtained during hospitalization and analyzed. Viral load was measured by real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. Partial sequences of the viral genome were analyzed for genotyping. Plasma concentrations of 17 cytokines were measured by multiplex-bead immunoassay. Results: Of 70 samples, 51 could be genotyped. Genotype B was predominant (80.4%) and other genotypes were uncommon. Intensive care unit admission rates (51.2% vs 50.0%) and mortality rates (26.8% vs 40.0%) did not show any significant differences between genotype B and non-B genotypes. The initial viral load did not show any significant differences (3.59 vs 3.64 log copies/μL), whereas viral load measured at hospital day 3-4 tended to be higher in genotype B than non-B genotypes (3.83 vs 1.83 log copies/μL, Conclusions: SFTSV genotype B was the prevalent genotype in South Korea, with no genotype-specific difference in clinical outcomes, initial viral load, or cytokine profiles.
