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

A 6-month-old female infant was referred with a 3-day history of low-grade fever, slight nasal congestion and rhinorrhoea. On admission, the clinical findings were unremarkable and she was discharged home. However, she became progressively more listless with a decreased urine output and was once again seen in the emergency department. Analytically she was found to have metabolic acidosis, hyperkalaemia, thrombocytopaenia, anaemia and schistocytes in the peripheral blood smear. Based on these findings, the diagnosis of haemolyticâ-uremic syndrome was made. A few hours postadmission, there was an abrupt clinical deterioration. She went into cardiorespiratory arrest and she was successfully resuscitated. An ST-segment elevation was noted on the ECG monitor and the troponin I levels were raised, suggesting myocardial infarction. Despite intensive supportive therapy, she went into refractory shock and died within 30 hours.
