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

Syphilis is a predominantly sexually transmitted infection caused by the spirochete Treponema pallidum. The infection presents with four different stages and although rare, can lead to behavioral symptoms if not treated in its earliest form. It can cause psychosis, mania, depression, anxiety, and personality changes. Screening and early treatment of syphilis are essential in preventing neurosyphilis and its neuropsychiatric symptoms. Neurosyphilis is rarely the initial presentation of syphilis. This is a case report of a 30-year-old female with neurosyphilis who presented with psychosis as the primary presentation.
