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

Objectives: We conducted surveillance for novel respiratory viruses among patients hospitalized with pneumonia in Sri Lanka and Vietnam. Methods: We enrolled patients from January 2020 to July 2022 at one major hospital each in Sri Lanka and Vietnam. The participants' nasopharyngeal swabs were studied with assays for previously recognized viruses as well as for assays for novel viruses. Results: A total of 401 hospitalized patients were enrolled, 204 from Sri Lanka and 197 from Vietnam. Laboratory analyses detected a number of previously recognized viruses, including influenza A/(H1N1)pdm09, human respiratory syncytial virus B, human respirovirus 3, rhinovirus A59, enteroviruses, and a human mastadenovirus C. Although an assortment of common human coronaviruses was characterized, 18 (43.9%) of 41 coronavirus-positive samples from Vietnam had evidence of the newly described canine-like coronavirus, CCoV-HuPn-2018 (previously only detected in Malaysia and Haiti). Conclusions: The detection of a novel, possibly emerging virus, CCoV-HuPn-2018, in multiple patients in Vietnam, demonstrates the value of such periodic novel virus surveillance, especially in regions at risk for viral emergence.
