A Rare Complication of Leptospirosis: Weil's Disease Diagnosed in the United States.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Leptospirosis is mostly found in tropical regions such as Latin America and Southeast Asia. Here we present a case of leptospirosis in the United States in a 43-year-old African American male who had complications such as sepsis, acute renal failure, hyperbilirubinemia, and transaminitis. Through this case report, we want to highlight the rare occurrence of this infection in the United States. It should be considered high in the list of differential diagnoses for patients traveling to underdeveloped countries and participating in adventure sports. Early recognition and treatment of leptospirosis are essential in decreasing life-threatening complications.
