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

backgroundRotavirus A (RVA) is an important pathogen causing acute viral gastroenteritis in young children and various animals. RVA is also recognized as a common cause of gastroenteritis in piglets. Epidemiological studies of porcine RVA (PoRVA) conducted in different settings worldwide reported that the prevalence of PoRVA infection ranged from 9.4% to 74.0% with the predominance of G4P[6], G4P[7], and G5P[7] genotypes. In Thailand, long-term epidemiological surveillance of PoRVA infection is limited. Continuous monitoring of PoRVA infection is required to gain a better understanding the prevalence and evolution of PoRVA. In this study, the prevalence and genetic diversity of PoRVA were investigated by screening of 1,260 stool samples collected from 0 to 5-week-old piglets with acute diarrhea during 2016 to 2023 by using real-time RT-PCR. The G- and P-genotypes of RVA were identified by characterization of the partial VP7 and VP4 genes by using multiplex-PCR, nucleotide sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis.

resultsA total of 303 out of 1,260 (24.0%) samples were positive for PoRVA. Overall, the G5P[23] (28.7%) and G4P[23] (28.4%) were detected as the co-predominant PoRVA genotypes, followed by G5P[13] (9.9%), G3P[23] (9.6%), G9P[23] (8.2%), G4P[13] (7.9%), G9P[13] (3.3%), G3P[13] (1.7%), G4P[6] (1.7%), and G2P[23] (0.3%) genotypes. Additionally, a rare G2P[27] (0.3%) genotype re-emerged approximately 22 years after the initial detection in 2000 in Chiang Mai, Thailand.

conclusionOur results revealed the prevalence of wide variety of PoRVA genotypes circulating in piglets with acute diarrhea in Thailand over a study period of seven years. Of these, G5P[23] and G4P[23] emerged as the most predominant genotypes, which were substantially different from previous reports in the same geographical area. The findings offer valuable contribution to a better understanding of molecular epidemiology and evolution of PoRVA in piglets with acute diarrhea.
