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

Reported here is the case of a pregnant woman who developed a severe Chlamydophila abortus infection after indirect contact with infected goats resulting in preterm stillbirth. The woman fully recovered after treatment with doxycycline. In the goat herd with which her husband worked Chlamydophila abortus was actively circulating, as shown by positive serology. When pregnant women present with rapidly worsening influenza-like illness, special attention should be given to possible contact (direct or indirect) with animals when recording the anamnesis. Pregnant women, especially those who live in rural areas, should generally be made aware of the risks of zoonotic diseases and how to avoid them.
