Secondary syphilis presenting as fever of unknown origin.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 thirty-eight year-old male presented with a seven-week history of persistent fever accompanied by recurrent night sweats, chills, arthralgias, headache, and chest tightness.Initial laboratory testing showed non-specific elevation of inflammatory markers, but was otherwise unremarkable.A palmar rash developed one week later, prompting testing for syphilis. Fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption (FTA-ABS) and rapid plasma reagin (RPR) tests were both positive.Penicillin G was administered and the patient recovered uneventfully.Our case emphasizes the need for increased syphilis screening to ensure proper diagnosis and prompt treatment.
