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: Influenza is a respiratory infection that poses a significant health burden worldwide. Environmental indicators, such as air pollutants and meteorological factors, play a role in the onset and propagation of influenza. Accurate predictions of influenza incidence and understanding the factors influencing it are crucial for public health interventions. Our study aims to investigate the impact of various environmental indicators on influenza incidence and apply the ARIMAX model to integrate these exogenous variables to enhance the accuracy of influenza incidence predictions. Method: Descriptive statistics and time series analysis were employed to illustrate changes in influenza incidence, air pollutants, and meteorological indicators. Cross correlation function (CCF) was used to evaluate the correlation between environmental indicators and the influenza incidence. We used ARIMA and ARIMAX models to perform predictive analysis of influenza incidence. Results: From January 2014 to September 2023, a total of 21,573 cases of influenza were reported in Fuzhou, with a noticeable year-by-year increase in incidence. The peak of influenza typically occurred around January each year. The results of CCF analysis showed that all 10 environmental indicators had a significant impact on the incidence of influenza. The ARIMAX(0, 0, 1) (1, 0, 0) Conclusion: This study provides insights into the impact of environmental indicators on influenza incidence in Fuzhou. The ARIMAX(0, 0, 1) (1, 0, 0)
