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

Rat lung worm disease (RLWD) is endemic to Hawai'i, and cases of severe RLWD with long-term sequelae have been reported in Hawai'i. However, there are limited data on clinical features of the RLWD survivors with the long-term sequelae. The authors conducted a survey to report on clinical characteristics of RLWD survivors with the long-term sequelae. Four RLWD survivors had severe RLWD with persistent, neurological symptoms for years after RLWD. In conclusion, long-term sequelae of severe RLWD exist. The most common long-term consequence among participants was severe skin pain, which may relate to damage of the nerves or spinal cord.
