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

Group C rotaviruses have been identified recently from fecal samples of children with diarrhea in the United States. Using reverse transcriptasepolymerase chain reaction and sequence analysis, we sequenced gene 8s encoding VP7 from two U.S. strains (RI-1 and RI-2), and eight other strains isolated from patients on four continents, and compared these with the sequences of four published strains. The gene 8s of the 14 strains were remarkably conserved in size and in predicted primary and secondary structures. When the sequences of the human VP7s were compared with that of the prototype porcine Cowden strain, six regions were found variable in both deduced primary and predicted secondary structures, four of which were predicted to be hydrophilic and might determine serotype specificity. Gene 8 of the human S-1 strain was further characterized by expression in recombinant baculoviruses. The expressed product was immunogenic but failed to elicit neutralizing antibodies. Our sequence analysis indicates that all the human strains characterized to date belong to a single G genotype, which may constitute a single G serotype, pending further antigenic analysis. Whether the human strains and the Cowden strain are the same serotype remains to be determined.
