Clinical Profile and Short Term Outcome of Children with Neutropenia.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2019. 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
objectivesTo study the clinical profile and short term outcome of neutropenia in children during hospital stay.
methodsAn observational study was carried out at a Children's Hospital. The study population comprised of 77 admitted children aged 1 mo to 18 y with a varied clinical profile and neutropenia; defined as absolute neutrophil count less than 1500/mm
resultsAcute transient neutropenia was seen, the median duration being 3 d in younger patients. Dengue fever was the commonest etiology. The median duration of hospital stay was 8 d. Fifty three (68.8%) patients had associated thrombocytopenia. Three children developed complications like nosocomial sepsis and shock. Seventy two (93.5%) were discharged, 1 died, 3 left against medical advice and one patient was followed up for 4 wk.
conclusionsAcute febrile illnesses like dengue, enteric fever, malaria are the predominant causes of neutropenia. Mild neutropenia was seen in over 50% children requiring a short duration of admission (5-8 d); without any complications.
