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

During the winter influenza peaks, a total of 2689 ILI patients were collected from the two hospitals, with 58.61% of the participants vaccinated. Of the ILI patients, 761 (28.3%) were laboratory-confirmed influenza infection, with 76.7% being A(H3N2) and 22.8% B/Victoria. After adjusting for covariates, the adjusted VE (aVE) was 57.06% (95% CI, 48.59-64.13%). In the subtype/lineage and age subgroup analysis, influenza VE against B/Victoria was higher than A(H3N2), and decreased with age. More, influenza VE (aVE = 19.63% [95% CI, -29.13-49.98%]) against all subtypes/lineages were not statistically significant for the spring-summer peak. Overall, influenza vaccines provided significant protection against influenza-associated outpatient visits among students in Shenzhen during 2023/24 winter influenza season. The findings underscore the importance of maintaining high vaccination coverage.
