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 female patient presented with exertional dyspnea, myalgia, a petechial rash of the lower extremities and pronounced gingivitis. The biochemical test results showed the presence of anemia. The patient had a known eating disorder and on questioning about eating habits admitted that she did not eat any fruit or vegetables. This led to the suspicion of a vitamin C deficiency, which was confirmed by high-pressure liquid chromatography. The patient was subsequently treated with 1000 mg ascorbic acid daily for 1 month whereby the clinical symptoms and anemia improved within a few weeks.
