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

Fever is a symptom of a wide range of diseases. Its diagnostic management is of crucial importance, whereby the interface between general practitioner and hospital plays an important role. The family practitioner is of particular importance in the detection of life-threatening or complex situations involving fever. The diagnostic algorithm presented here can serve as the basis for rapid and targeted diagnostics. Good communication between the doctor and the hospital doctor is mandatory.
