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
introductionWith expanding clinical spectrum of dengue fever, encephalitis has been documented with increasing frequency. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence, predictors and prognostic factors of dengue encephalitis (DE) in the setting of dengue viruses (DENV) infection. MATERIALS AND
methodsA hospital-based prospective cohort study was carried out, which included laboratory confirmed dengue positive cases. All dengue cases were categorized into nonencephalitis or encephalitis group. We estimated DE incidence and analyzed clinical, laboratory and neuroimaging data on admission, discharge and follow-up for 3 months to assess its predictors and prognostic factors.
resultsOut of the enrolled 540 confirmed dengue cases, 27 patients had DE, representing 5% incidence. Two third of the DE patients were 20 years of age or younger, with male preponderance (81.5%). Fever, headache, and altered sensorium were present in >90% on admission. Significant predictors of encephalitis were mean body temperature during fever (
conclusionClinical and laboratory parameter along with DENV positivity in CSF can predict and prognosticate dengue encephalitis.
