Anaplasmosis-induced hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.

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
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare, life-threatening inflammatory syndrome of severe immune system activation. It is a diagnostic challenge with high morbidity and mortality. We present a case of HLH due to anaplasmosis infection. A 54-year-old man with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease presented with fever, nausea, vomiting, dyspnea, and arthralgias for 6 days. He had a rapidly progressive clinical decline requiring intubation for acute respiratory failure and dialysis for acute renal failure. He tested positive for anaplasmosis. His workup met criteria for HLH. He was treated with doxycycline and a steroid taper with clinical improvement allowing for extubation and renal recovery. Patients with persistent fevers, hepatosplenomegaly, cytopenias, and hyperferritinemia should be worked up for HLH.
