Characteristics of Streptococcal Toxic Shock Syndrome Caused by Different Beta-hemolytic Streptococci Species: A Single-center Retrospective Study.
Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) is a life-threatening condition caused by beta-hemolytic streptococci (BHS). Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study using adult medical records of patients with invasive BHS in a tertiary care institution from 2002 to 2022 and classified them into STSS or non-STSS groups. Multivariable analysis of bacterial species adjusted for age and diabetes mellitus was conducted. Results: A total of 43 STSS and 285 non-STSS cases were identified. Conclusions: This study described and compared the clinical characteristics of STSS caused by different BHS. We demonstrated that
