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
We describe concurrent diagnoses of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and secondary syphilis in a 17-year-old adolescent with jaundice, with possible syphilitic hepatitis (SH) excluded after a thorough investigation. Our patient presented with a several-day history of malaise, progressive jaundice, and vomiting. She disclosed being sexually active and requested testing for sexually transmitted infections. Her subsequent investigations demonstrated acute hepatitis with a positive antinuclear antibody and elevated IgG. She also tested positive for syphilis with a reactive rapid plasma regain and treponema pallidum particle agglutination assay. We considered 2 etiologies for her elevated liver enzymes: syphilitic hepatitis and AIH. AIH was confirmed on liver biopsy, establishing the first reported pediatric case of concurrent AIH and secondary syphilis. Syphilis is hypothesized to be an infectious trigger for AIH.
