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

Streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) has a dramatic clinical course and high mortality rate. Here, we report a case of STSS complicated by primary peritonitis and bilateral empyema. A previously healthy young woman was diagnosed with STSS complicated by primary peritonitis and bilateral empyema. Blood culture results on admission were negative. Sever shock, respiratory failure, systemic inflammation, thrombocytopenia, renal failure, ascites, and pleural effusion occurred, mimicking thrombocytopenia, anasarca, fever, reticulin fibrosis/renal failure and organomegaly (TAFRO) syndrome. Retesting blood cultures identified
