Bacillus clausii Bacteremia Following Probiotic Use: A Report of Two Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
The use of probiotics to improve bacterial flora and achieve control of diarrheal episodes is a common practice in outpatients and hospitalized patients. In most cases, related adverse events are few and not life-threatening. However, cases of bacteremia associated with the use of these substances have been described, mainly in the pediatric population in which their prescription is more common. Cases of bacteremia and sepsis have also been documented in immunocompetent and immunocompromised adult patients following the use of probiotics. We present the report of two patients who, in the context of diarrhea, received probiotics with
