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

Acute gastroenteritis (AGE) remains a leading cause of pediatric mortality and morbidity, with rotavirus as the leading cause of severe disease. Post-vaccine surveillance is essential to monitor circulating pathogens and assess vaccination impact. Sicily was the first Italian region to implement universal rotavirus vaccination in 2012. We retrospectively studied 693 children hospitalized for suspected viral AGE at the Children's Hospital of Palermo (March 2017-February 2020), testing stool samples for viral and bacterial enteric pathogens. Rotavirus remained the most common agent (13.3%), followed by norovirus (12.1%), adenovirus (11.3%),
