A case report of disseminated herpes simplex hepatitis masquerading as spinal headache.

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
Hepatitis is a rare complication of herpes simplex virus (HSV) which can lead to acute liver failure, liver transplant, or death. This complication is more commonly seen in neonates, immunocompromised, or pregnant patients. Early recognition of disease facilitates prompt treatment with antiretrovirals and prevent its progression. To our knowledge, only 30 cases have been reported. Our patient presented with headaches and elevation of transaminases followed by vesicular rash. Culture tested positive for HSV1 and HSV2 and the patient was successfully treated with Acyclovir.
