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

Ceftriaxone-induced encephalopathy is a rare but known adverse effect secondary to neurotoxicity, especially in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis. The common presenting symptoms include myoclonus, psychosis, and seizures. We are presenting a case of a 77-year-old female patient who presented with confusion and jerky movements of her lips and extremities. Her initial workup was negative for stroke and seizure disorder. A probable diagnosis of ceftriaxone-induced encephalopathy was made using an Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) probability scale (Naranjo scale) with a Naranjo score of 5. The patient's symptoms resolved after discontinuation of ceftriaxone. Ceftriaxone is a commonly used intravenous antibiotic in the inpatient setting, and thus clinicians should be aware of this rare adverse reaction in patients with ESRD.
