A Case of Syphilitic Hepatitis in an Adolescent.
Article in JPGN reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The incidence of syphilis is rising among adolescents necessitating improved provider awareness and screening practices. We present a case of an adolescent with acute hepatitis ultimately diagnosed with secondary syphilitic hepatitis. Clinical presentation, laboratory abnormalities, and histologic features of syphilitic hepatitis are nonspecific, with diagnosis relying on clinical suspicion and targeted testing. This case highlights the importance of screening for syphilis in sexually active adolescents with acute hepatitis. The rising incidence of syphilis among adolescents, and the variety of clinical manifestations including those commonly seen by pediatric gastroenterologists, makes elevated clinical suspicion essential to prompt diagnosis and treatment. With improved provider awareness across general pediatric and subspecialty providers, the transmission of syphilis among adolescent patients can be reduced.
