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

We report a 3-month-old girl who presented with high-grade fever for 3 days. Her initial physical examination was normal. Investigation showed abnormal white cells in her urine. She was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection and received an antibiotic for 1 day. After that, she developed a generalised maculopapular rash over her body. An adverse drug reaction from the antibiotic was suspected, and the patient was referred to our hospital. On admission, she still had fever and was irritable. She was diagnosed with sepsis and given another broad-spectrum antibiotic for 2 days. However, her fever still persisted. An additional thorough physical examination showed redness of her BCG inoculation scar. Consequently, a diagnosis of Kawasaki disease (KD) was made. After she received intravenous immunoglobulin, her fever diminished straight away. This case highlights an unusual manifestation of KD in an uncommonly young age group.
