Congenital scrub typhus: a case report and literature review.

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
Background: This study aimed to analyze the clinical course of a newborn with congenital scrub typhus caused by vertical transmission and explore early diagnosis and treatment strategies. The clinical data of the neonate were retrospectively analyzed and the related literature was reviewed. Case presentation: The newborn was a full-term one, with a good Apgar score at birth. The neonate had apnea at 3 h of life, requiring NICU care and IV antibiotics (piperacillin) for suspected sepsis. An examination revealed hepatosplenomegaly. Blood tests revealed anemia and thrombocytopenia and a chest x-ray showed patchy inflammation. On the second day of life, he developed a fever. On the third day of life, he required mechanical ventilation because his condition worsened after he presented with dyspnea, hypotension, depressed sensorium, and other signs of sepsis. Importantly, the neonate's mother had a history of scrub typhus at 31 Conclusions: This article reports a case of congenital
