A Case of Emergency Pericardial Drainage for Cardiac Tamponade Due to Dengue Fever.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Dengue fever is a febrile viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes. The symptoms of dengue fever are numerous and varied; however, cardiac tamponade is a particularly rare and atypical complication. This study describes a case of a 30-year-old male who presented with acute respiratory distress and chest pain on the ninth day after diagnosis of dengue fever. On admission, a computed tomography scan revealed a large pericardial effusion. The patient went into shock and was urgently treated with pericardial drainage, which resulted in rapid improvement of his symptoms. Emergent management of this rare but potentially fatal complication of dengue fever resulted in a favorable outcome in this case.
