Article in European journal of case reports in internal medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
In this case, a 76-year-old female presented with 3-4 days of fever with no other localizing signs. Notably, she had had an untreated LEARNING POINTS: Fever of unknown aetiology with prior bacteraemia merits a thorough work-up for occult sources such as a localized abscess or malignancy, which can cause bacterial translocation.Fusobacterium and other anaerobic infectious agents should be considered in the context of an indolent disease course since they are slow-growing in cultures, and also, if the patient has risk factors such as immunosuppression, diabetes, poor oral hygiene and so on.It is important to have systems in place in hospitals to ensure follow-up for patients who may have a positive culture after discharge from hospital to confirm that the infection is adequately addressed.
