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

AbstractThe ongoing 2025-2026 outbreak of measles in Utah is the state's largest in 40 years. To characterize the epidemiology and clinical features of hospitalized patients, we conducted a chart review of patients admitted to Utah hospitals between June 20, 2025, and April 14, 2026. Of the 602 measles cases reported during that period, we identified 49 patients (8%) who were hospitalized. Most hospitalized patients (44, 90%) were unvaccinated. The most common reasons for hospitalization were dehydration and hypoxemia. These findings highlight the preventable health care burden associated with measles in Utah.
