Hypertriglyceridemia and massive rhabdomyolysis in a patient with disseminated legionella.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Legionella most commonly presents as pneumonia but can have disseminated involvement, presenting as extra-pulmonary disease involving gastrointestinal, neurological, cardiac, renal, and musculoskeletal systems, and skin and soft tissues. We present a case of a patient with pneumonia, rhabdomyolysis, renal failure, hypertriglyceridemia, pancreatitis, and cutaneous involvement. This case highlights the breath of involvement legionella can have, including the never previously documented manifestation of hypertriglyceridemia and severe rhabdomyolysis with the highest creatinine kinase recorded.
