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

Increasing evidence suggests that human bocavirus (HBoV) is associated with respiratory symptoms in the absence of other identifiable pathogens and may even precipitate severe lower respiratory tract infections. However, only a few studies of severe human bocavirus infections in pediatric patients have been reported. The aim of the current study was to collect and analyze clinical data from children diagnosed with mild pneumonia and severe pneumonia, with an emphasis on those testing positive for HBoV from June 2009 to June 2019. Among the 799 HBoV-positive children included in the study, approximately 5.88% experienced severe pneumonia. Results revealed no significant differences between co-detection and single detection of HBoV-positive pneumonia in the severe and mild groups, supporting the pathogenicity of HBoV. A higher incidence of severe cases was observed in children lacking
