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

Brucellosis is the most prevalent bacterial zoonosis worldwide. The WHO estimates that the infection is responsible for more than 500 000 cases per year across the world [1]. Hematological complications like mild anemia and leukopenia have been frequently associated with acute brucellosis, but pancytopenia and thrombocytopenia are less frequently encountered [2]. We are reporting the case of a 73 year old male patient, with pancytopenia that revealed acute brucellosis. Following 6 weeks of antibiotic therapy, our patient showed favorable clinical outcome, and the complete blood count returned to normal. Acute brucellosis should be highly suspected in patients with pancytopenia.
