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

objectivesThe objective of this article was to present the clinical peculiarity of the Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction (JHR) during antibiotic treatment of Lyme arthritis. MATERIAL AND

methodsCase study presentation as a basis for discussion, literature search of PubMed database particularly in the subject of combination of the JHR and Lyme borreliosis using the combination of words "Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction" and "Lyme borreliosis", "Lyme arthritis", "antibiotic treatment", "generalized inflammation", "cytokine production", "children", "increasing awareness"; discussion of the problem based on a clinical case and cited articles.

resultsThe authors present a case of Lyme arthritis in a 13-year-old boy, as well as a discussion of clinical features of this complication of Lyme disease treatment as the Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction. On the 7

conclusionsIn the reviewed literature the Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction in patients with Lyme borreliosis is described more often in adults, with mild course and short duration of the disease. Based on the presented clinical picture this severe complication may also be associated with long duration and marked signs of inflammation. The authors suggest that informing health professionals about occurrence of the Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction should help physicians to distinguish it from allergic reactions or other conditions and improve treatment outcomes.
