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.

It mainly occurs in immunocompetent individuals and was first reported in the early 1900s by physician Andre Lemierre. A 23-year-old male presented to our institution with sore throat, difficulty swallowing, left-sided ear pain, nausea, vomiting, subjective fevers, general malaise, right-sided rib pain, and anorexia. Complete blood cell count and metabolic panels revealed severe thrombocytopenia, mild anemia, acute kidney injury, and hyperbilirubinemia. Blood cultures grew
