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

The coronavirus disease 19 pandemic disrupted pediatric respiratory infections through non-pharmaceutical interventions and altered contact patterns. Long-term comparisons across the pandemic timeline in children remain limited. In this study, we analyzed 15,657 respiratory specimens from patients ≤ 18 years at Dankook University Hospital (2007-2023) using multiplex polymerase chain reaction assays targeting 15 viruses. Age-stratified positivity rates were compared across pandemic phases. Children ≤ 6 years comprised 88.61% of the study population. Human rhinovirus showed the highest detection rate (24.06%), followed by adenovirus (12.33%), respiratory syncytial virus-subtypes A and B (RSV-A: 11.13%; RSV-B: 8.65%), human parainfluenza virus-type 3 (HPIV-3; 6.21%), human metapneumovirus (HMPV; 5.33%), and enterovirus (2018-2023; EV; 10.96%). Monthly distributions differed (
