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

Background: The rigorous non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs) during SARS-CoV-2 outbreak posed a deep impact on the etiology and epidemiology of acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs). We aimed to elucidate the changing patterns during and post NPIs of SARS-CoV-2 in Shenzhen, China. Methods: A total of 4610 outpatients with ARTIs from the fever clinic of our hospital were enrolled between June 2022 and May 2024, and nasopharyngeal swabs were collected and tested for twenty-five common respiratory pathogens using well-established RT-qPCR. The two year's period was further divided into three stages: Stage 1 with strict NPIs, Stage 2 with outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 and Stage 3 with regular epidemic of SARS-CoV-2. Demographic and clinical data were also collected and analyzed. Results: Overall, 57.05% (2630/4610) of patients were positive for at least one of tested respiratory pathogens, with top five pathogens of IAV (17.09%), Conclusions: In conclusion, the etiology and epidemiological patterns of ARTIs during and post NPIs of SARS-CoV-2 in Shenzhen have changed overtime, and sex, age and seasonal patterns were also found. The findings could provide useful information for the public health measures and the clinical management of respiratory infections.
