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

Acute bacterial prostatitis (ABP) is a common disease in adults but uncommon in children. Here, we report the case of a pediatric patient without any underlying disease who was diagnosed with ABP while trying to determine the cause of fever refractory to antimicrobial therapy. A previously healthy 12-year-old boy presented with a 13-day history of fever and malaise despite initial antimicrobial treatment. Further tests revealed pyuria and enlarged prostate with possible abscesses, which led to the diagnosis of ABP based on a contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan. Although initial urine cultures were negative,
