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

A 39-year-old man visited our hospital with lower leg pain and fever. We suspected sepsis because of an infectious disease. He was hospitalized, and treatment was initiated. After admission, we received information that mice were present in his living environment. Moreover, we considered leptospirosis in the differential diagnosis and started the administration of ceftriaxone and minocycline. On the 10th day after admission, after examination by the National Institute on Infectious Diseases, we diagnosed him with leptospirosis. The patient was transferred to the hospital for rehabilitation on day 23 after admission. It is important to consider leptospirosis even in non-epidemic area.
