Comparison between Three Rare Cases of Co-Infection with Dengue, Leptospira and Hepatitis E: Is Early Endothelial Involvement the Culprit in Mortality?
Article in Annals of medical and health sciences research, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Co-infection in immunocompetent patients is rare. Though co-infection with dengue and leptospira cases is increasingly reported, a co-infection of this combination along with hepatitis E is rarely thought of. Until date only two case of triple co-infection have been reported world-wide. Here, we are reporting a patient with co-infection of dengue, leptospirosis and hepatitis E admitted to our intensive care unit. Early septic shock and increasing procalcitonin in dengue patient raised suspicion of co-infection. Our aim is to educate intensivists about this rare co-infection and hence that timely initiation of appropriate diagnostic, therapeutic and supportive measures can alter outcome favorably.
