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

The study compared the clinical profile and outcomes of Japanese encephalitis (JE) and acute encephalitis syndrome (AES) in children. Fifty-six consecutive children with symptoms fulfilling the WHO clinical case definition of AES from June 2018 to June 2020 were included in the study. All patients who tested positive for either serum or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) anti-JE-IgM antibodies were JE patients (n = 24) and compared with non-JE AES cases (n = 32). Fever, seizures, and altered sensorium were the most common presenting symptoms. Low GCS, status epilepticus, meningeal irritation, raised CSF protein, and INR > 1.5 of JE children showed significant association with mortality (p value < 0.05), whereas only low GCS showed significant association in non-JE AES cases. The JE-specific mortality rate was 29%, which was less than the mortality rate of non-JE AES children at 41%. Both JE and non-JE AES children had a similar clinical profile, but only the JE children's poor clinical and laboratory parameters were associated with adverse outcomes.
