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

Information concerning the fundamental properties of a pathogen is essential at the beginning of an outbreak. Often, the fundamental properties of an emerging virus are unknown because the virus is new, as in the recent SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, or because the properties have not been investigated, as was the case during the West African Ebola virus epidemic and the Marburg virus epidemics in Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The amount of time that a virus can remain viable under various conditions is one of these fundamental properties. Here we present methods for determining virus stability on surfaces, in biologically relevant matrices, and in wastewater that can be also applied to Marburg viruses.
