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.
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 incidence of syphilis has increased dramatically in Germany since 2001. Homosexual men have been particularly afflicted. Several characteristic features should be taken into account in the diagnosis and treatment of HIV patients with concomitant syphilis. Since laboratory analyses are frequently unreliable, the experienced physician must pay special attention to the clinical picture. The stages in the clinical course of syphilis do not differ essentially between HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients. However, atypical and serious courses with rapid progression and CNS involvement are observed more frequently. Moreover, incorrect diagnoses are often reached. Treatment requires particular diligence. Penicillin is the agent of choice for all stages of syphilis in patients infected with HIV. Because the stages are often difficult to differentiate, the choice of which penicillin derivative should be administered is the subject of controversy. There is no safe alternative for patients allergic to penicillin.
