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

objectiveTo describe the epidemiological characteristics and changes of febrile seizure (FS) among children under 6 years old in Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province from 2015 to 2021.

methodsBased on the Ningbo Regional Health Information Platform, a dynamic cohort was established using vaccination registration information, and the cases of FS were identified by the diagnostic results of Chinese terms or International Classification of Diseases 10th revision (ICD-10) R56.0 code in the electronic medical records. The first visit of FS during the observation period was defined as a new case, and a recurrence case was defined as the case with a visit interval of more than 7 days. The 95% confidence interval (

resultsFrom January 2015 to June 2020, there were 1.3 million children under 6 years old in Ningbo, with male accounting for 52.87%. The median follow-up time was 2.83 (1.55-4.00) years. During the follow-up period, 12 776 new onset cases had FS, with more males than females, with an overall incidence density of 4.34 (95%

conclusionFrom 2015 to 2019, the overall incidence density of FS in children under 6 years old in Ningbo City presented an increasing trend. More attention should be paid to the health education, the improvement of the health maintenance model, the enhancement of the cognition of FS, the identification and treatment of FS among high-risk population and regions so as to prevent its recurrence and reduce the disease burden during the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epide-mic.
