Rabies.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Despite increases in our understanding of rabies pathogenesis, it remains an inevitably fatal disease. Lack of awareness, low level of political commitment to rabies control, and failure to recognize and correlate clinical, laboratory, and neuroimaging features contribute to continuing deaths. Clinical symptomatology, once believed to be unique, may be variable, even in patients associated with lyssaviruses of the same genotype. This article discusses virus transport, the role of virus and host response mechanisms in relation to protean clinical manifestations, and mechanisms responsible for relative intactness of consciousness in human rabies. Differential involvement of the anterior horn cell in furious rabies and the peripheral nerve in paralytic rabies is summarized. Escape mechanisms from host defenses explain why a fatal outcome is unavoidable regardless of therapy. Neuroprotective treatment, using a coma-induction regimen, proves not to be beneficial. Survival of patients with excellent recovery relies on early innate and adaptive immunity plus adequate intensive care support.
