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

Scrub typhus shows a high prevalence in South-East Asia. In pregnant females, it can cause both maternal and fetal adverse outcomes. We report a case series of two women with scrub typhus and their varied outcomes. A 25-year-old primigravida treated for scrub typhus at 23 weeks' gestation presented at 34 weeks with stage three fetal growth restriction (FGR). Caesarean delivery was performed. The neonate had biliary atresia. A 24-year-old primigravida at 31 weeks' gestation was referred from a local hospital due to scrub typhus induced multi-organ dysfunction. She had FGR stage 1 with oligohydramnios. Emergency caesarean delivery was performed in view of acute fetal bradycardia. There is an emerging need for research to reassess what is already known about scrub typhus in pregnancy and to develop techniques for its treatment inorder to achieve a positive maternal and neonatal outcome in these cases.
