The circulating characteristics of common respiratory pathogens in Ningbo, China, both before and following the cessation of COVID-19 containment measures.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
To assess the circulating characteristics of common respiratory pathogens following the complete relaxation of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) and the cessation of the dynamic zero-COVID policy. The retrospective analysis was conducted from 14,412 patients with acute respiratory infections (ARIs) from January 24, 2020, to December 31, 2023, including Influenza A virus (IFV-A), Influenza B virus (IFV-B), Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), Human Rhinovirus (HRV), Human Parainfluenza Virus (HPIV), Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV), Human Coronavirus (HCoV), Human Bocavirus (HBoV), Human Adenovirus (HAdV), and Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP). Compared with 2020-2022, Joinpoint analysis indicated a monthly increase in overall pathogen activity in 2023, rising from an average of 43.05% to an average of 68.46%. The positive rates of IFV-A, IFV-B, HMPV, HPIV, HCoV, and MP increased, while those of HRV and RSV decreased, and no differences in HAdV and HBoV. The outbreak of IFV-A and MP was observed, the positive rate of MP has surpassed pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and the spread of RSV was interrupted by IFV-A. Infants and toddlers were primarily infected by HRV and RSV, Children and adolescents exhibited a higher prevalence of infections with MP, IFV-A, and HRV, whereas Adults and the elderly were primarily infected by IFV-A. The incidence of co-infections rose from 4.25 to 13.73%. Restricted cubic spline models showed that the susceptible age ranges for multiple pathogens expanded. These changes serve as a reminder to stay alert in the future and offer clinicians a useful guide for diagnosing and treating.
