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
In 2017, diphtheria outbreaks occurred in several provinces in Indonesia; however, the epidemiological data in the country is limited. The aim of this study was to determine the association between clinical findings and laboratory parameters associated with mortality of children with diphtheria. A retrospective cohort study was conducted at Haji Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan, Indonesia, covering diphtheria patients from January 2020 to December 2023. All patients aged 1-18 years clinically diagnosed with diphtheria were considered eligible. The associations between demographic characteristics, clinical features, immunization status, complications, and laboratory profiles with mortality were determined using Fisher's exact test, and the odds ratio (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was calculated. Our data indicated that the clinical characteristics of myocarditis (
