Case Report: Survival from Clinical Rabies in a Young Child from Maharashtra, India, 2022.

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
A 3.5-year-old male child from Maharashtra, India, presented with features of meningoencephalitis approximately 1 month after sustaining severe bite injuries on the right hand from a stray dog. He had received four doses of post-exposure intradermal rabies vaccination (on days 0, 3, and 7 of the bite and erroneously on day 20, instead of day 28 as recommended in the updated Thai Red Cross regimen) as well as local and systemic injections of equine rabies immune globulin. The child was initially diagnosed with and treated for acute encephalitis syndrome before rabies encephalitis was confirmed by detection of rabies virus neutralizing antibodies in the cerebrospinal fluid. During the emergent period, he also received the antimalarial drug artesunate, recently reported to have antiviral effects against rabies virus. With intensive and supportive care, the child showed substantial clinical improvement over the next few weeks. He has now survived for more than 10 months after disease onset, albeit with severe neurological sequelae including diffuse cerebral and cerebellar atrophy.
