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

objectiveAlthough meteorological factors are connected with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) incidence, available findings have been inconsistent. This study was performed to systematically evaluate the correlation between meteorological factors and SFTS incidence.

methodsWe performed a thorough literature search in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Chinese databases from databases initiatives to November 30, 2024. Literature was searched for correlation between meteorological factors and SFTS incidence. Two researchers screened the retrieved literature based on exclusion and inclusion criteria. Finally, data extraction and quality evaluation were carried out for the included literature, and meta-analysis was executed applying the R package (4.4.1).

resultsA total of 404 relevant literature were retrieved, and 12 studies were enrolled in the meta-analysis. Both average temperature (r

conclusionsFactors such as temperature, humidity, precipitation, sunshine duration, and atmospheric pressure are related to the incidence of SFTS with a certain lag effect. Future studies on the relationship between meteorological factors and the incidence of SFTS should fully consider human activities and environmental factors, and explore the pathogenesis and transmission mechanisms in greater depth, so as to provide targeted preventive measures. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
