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
Peritonitis by perforation of the gall bladder of typhic origin is a rare condition. In Côte d'Ivoire, no studies to our knowledge have addressed the vesicular complications of typhoid fever in children. The aim of this work was to describe the epidemic-clinical, therapeutic and evolutionary aspects of the perforation of the gall bladder of typhic origin in subjects under 15 years of age. In 6 years, five children showed a vesicular perforation of typhic origin or 9.4% of peritonites of typhic origin. They were 5 boys with an average age of 07.4 years 5-11 years. The children were from low socioeconomic backgrounds. No history was noted. Clinical examination revealed peritoneal syndrome. X-ray of the abdomen without preparation carried out in all children had objectified a diffuse greyness. Leucocytosis was present in all cases. Treatment in all children initially consisted of resuscitation and antibiotic therapy with the 3
