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

Chikungunya fever (CHIKF) is endemic in India, with multiple outbreaks occurring across the country since its reemergence in 2005. Suspected CHIKF patients were recruited from four clinical sites during 2019-2022, with data collected on sociodemographic, clinical, and epidemiological aspects. Sera samples were screened for IgM, IgG antibodies and viral RNA along with their neutralizing capacity. Envelope genes of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) isolated were sequenced and further analysed. A total of 1312 suspected patients were screened during the study period; 258 patients were laboratory-confirmed with CHIKV infection. Severe clinical manifestation was observed in the patients during the viremic phase of infection. The neutralization potential was found to be increasing proportionally with the onset of illness, coinciding with the rise of IgG antibodies. Three of the four clinical sites had reported CHIKF outbreaks at different time points during the study period, and a distinct pattern of clinical presentation was observed across the sites. Phylogenetic and network analyses of E1, E2 and E3 genes from 62 CHIKV isolates demonstrated their evolution within the country. This study provides preliminary evidence of spatial and temporal variation in the clinical presentation and molecular evolution of virus in CHIKF outbreaks across India.
