Genomic Analysis of Rotavirus G8P[8] Strains Detected in the United States Through Active Surveillance, 2016-2017.
Article in Viruses, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
G8 rotaviruses are primarily associated with animals and infrequently cause infections in humans. The first detection of G8 strains in humans occurred around 1979, and since then, their presence has been sporadic, particularly in the United States (U.S.). During the 2016-2017 rotavirus surveillance season, the New Vaccine Surveillance Network (NVSN) identified 36 G8P[8] rotavirus strains across four sites in the U.S. This study presents the whole-genome characterization of these G8P[8] strains, along with comparative sequence analyses against the current vaccine strains, Rotarix and RotaTeq. Each strain exhibited a DS-1-like backbone with a consensus genotype constellation of G8P[8]-I2-R2-C2-M2-A2-N2-T2-E2-H2 and exhibited high genetic similarities to G8P[8] strains previously detected in Europe and Asia. Clinical analysis revealed no significant differences in hospitalization rates, length of stay, or severity scores between G8P[8] RVA-positive and non-G8P[8] RVA-positive subjects. Additionally, phylodynamic analysis determined the evolutionary rates and the most recent common ancestor for these strains, highlighting the importance of ongoing monitoring of rotavirus genotypes to assess the spread of these emerging G8P[8] strains.
