Article in The Neurohospitalist, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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: Scrub typhus, a mite-borne zoonosis caused by Case Report: We report a unique case of CVST following scrub typhus meningoencephalitis in an 18-year-old pregnant woman from West Bengal, India. Her condition was complicated by fever, headache, neck stiffness, and altered sensorium. Laboratory tests revealed leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, while serologies for other infectious diseases were negative. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis was significant for lymphocytic pleocytosis and elevated protein, with a positive Discussion: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis should be ruled out in pregnant women with refractory scrub typhus meningoencephalitis despite antibiotic therapy. Because scrub typhus is treatable with intravenous doxycycline and azithromycin, it should be considered in the workup of febrile patients with acute onset neurological disorders in the tropics or subtropics or travelers coming back from endemic areas, despite the absence of eschar and unremarkable neuroimaging findings.
