A fatal case of primary dengue infection with myocarditis and cerebral oedema.
Article in The Australasian medical journal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
With dengue fever emerging as a global health problem and more Australians travelling to endemic areas, imported dengue infection is on the rise and clinicians need to remain vigilant. Primary cardiac and neurologic involvement in dengue infection has been rarely described in the medical literature and the pathophysiology is poorly understood. A rare and fatal case of primary dengue infection in a 34-yearold woman who returned from Papua New Guinea is reported; the unusual features of this case include severe primary dengue infection, myocarditis, and acute cerebral oedema resulting in death. This case demonstrates that severe atypical manifestations and fatality can occur with primary dengue infection.
