Severe scarlet fever in a child with Down syndrome - a case report.
Article in Germs, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionScarlet fever is an acute infectious disease that is characterized by development of characteristic pin-point exanthema in a patient with signs of streptococcal pharyngitis and tonsillitis. Nowadays, due to effective antibacterial treatment, severe complicated cases of scarlet fever are occasionally rare. Because of immunity particularities, patients with Down syndrome are predisposed to bacterial respiratory diseases (and scarlet fever among them), that usually have prolonged complicated course. CASE REPORT: A clinical case of scarlet fever in a patient with Down syndrome was analyzed. The disease had a severe course with a specific skin syndrome and was complicated by pneumonia. Hospitalization and adequate treatment of the patient led to his complete recovery despite late initiation of antibacterial medicine. DISCUSSION: A long severe complicated course of the disease in the presented case was caused by combination of the late initiation of antibacterial treatment and the patient's personal particularities of reactivity.
conclusionsPatients with Down syndrome should be adequately monitored by family doctors in case of pharyngitis with early testing for group A hemolytic
