Multicenter Study on the Prevalence of Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus Coinfection and Disease Burden Among Hospitalized Children Aged 5 Years and Younger - 5 Prefecture-level Cities, Zhejiang Province, China, 2018-2023.
Article in China CDC weekly, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
What is already known about this topic?: Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) coinfection with other respiratory pathogens frequently occurs in young children with acute respiratory illness. However, the epidemiological patterns and associated disease burden of HRSV coinfections in pediatric populations remain poorly characterized. What is added by this report?: Analysis of hospitalized children under 5 years in Zhejiang Province from 2018 to 2023 revealed that 20.4% experienced HRSV coinfections, with bacterial coinfections substantially exceeding viral coinfections (14.1% What are the implications for public health practice?: Implementation of comprehensive prevention strategies, including vaccination programs, nonpharmaceutical interventions, and enhanced surveillance of multiple respiratory pathogens, is essential to reduce HRSV coinfections and their associated disease burden during periods of high respiratory pathogen circulation.
