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

We report a case of a 72-year-old female who presented with fever, abdominal pain, and diarrhea accompanied by leukopenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. The diagnosis of acute aplastic anemia was confirmed through bone marrow aspiration. Treatment included glucocorticoids, immunoglobulin therapy, and plasma exchange. Subsequently, the patient developed gastrointestinal bleeding and abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) revealed perforation of the transverse colon. Pathological examination of surgically removed diseased tissue confirmed mucor infection. Despite receiving antifungal therapy with amphotericin B, the patient's condition deteriorated due to the sepsis progression. Mucor infection in immunocompromised patients should be vigilant, and early diagnosis may help improve prognosis.
