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

Influenza activity peaks in southern (59.62%) and northern China (57.60%) during the 2022/2023 season reached the highest levels in the past 10 years. The 2023/2024 season witnessed a longer duration of the winter-spring epidemic weeks and a higher disease burden compared with previous high-epidemic years. The A(H3N2), A(H1N1)pdm09, and B/Victoria lineages alternated among the predominant circulating strains from the 2022/2023 season to the 2024/2025 season. After the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 seasons of disruption and fluctuation, influenza in the 2024/2025 season has reverted to its previous epidemic pattern.
