Streptococcal toxic shock syndrome with primary group A streptococcus peritonitis in a healthy female.
Article in Journal of community hospital internal medicine perspectives, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
A 47-year-old female with a history of chronic alcoholism presented with nausea, vomiting and mild epigastric tenderness. She reported subjective fever, abdominal fullness and loose, watery stools and had stable vitals on arrival. Examination was positive for mild epigastric tenderness with hepatic enlargement. Computed tomography of the abdomen showed circumferential thickening of the stomach wall, lower esophagus and the first part of the duodenum in addition to peritoneal ascites. She was admitted for alcohol-related gastritis, acute alcoholic hepatitis, and acute kidney injury. She was started on fluid resuscitation and supportive management. After 8-hours, the patient became hemodynamically unstable with subsequent intubation and fluid resuscitation. She was started on empiric antibiotics. Blood and ascitic fluid cultures were obtained showing group A beta-hemolytic streptococci (GAS). The patient was diagnosed with primary GAS peritonitis along with diffuse gastritis and streptococcal toxic shock syndrome. No cutaneous source of
