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

Many cases of Clostridium perfringens sepsis prove to be fatal. We present a case of C. perfringens sepsis with a liver abscess as the focus of infection, which was successfully treated by an interdisciplinary intensive medical care management. The sepsis with this rare pathogen was favored by the presence of a bilioenteric anastomosis and immunosuppressive treatment of a pre-existing Crohn's disease. Antibiotic treatment with clindamycin and penicillin G was initiated and the abscess was drained. Hemodialysis with high cut-off filters was started because of acute kidney failure in the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) stage III, hemolysis and rhabdomyolysis. Therapeutic plasma exchange was performed due to sepsis and acute liver failure.
