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

The mosquito-borne alphavirus o'nyong-nyong virus (ONNV) has proven its potential to cause major human outbreaks. On the African continent, ONNV causes unspecific febrile illness and co-circulates with the close relative chikungunya virus (CHIKV). The true scale of ONNV burden is poorly understood in Africa, because of the scarce availability of molecular in-house and commercial assays, strong cross-reactivity between ONNV and CHIKV in serological assays and a lack of surveillance. We designed a new RT-qPCR assay targeting the E1 gene for the detection of ONNV that can be used in monoplex or in duplex format, combined with a previously published CHIKV monoplex assay targeting the nsp1. The lower limit of detection with 95% positivity rate was determined to be <10 RNA copies/µL in monoplex and duplex format for both ONNV and CHIKV. Both monoplex assays and the duplex assay proved to be linear within the tested range of approximately 10
