Dengue and Typhoid: A Duet of Choreoathetosis.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Choreoathetoid movements can be caused by a range of conditions. Here, we discuss the case of a 16-year-old male with a history of acute febrile illness who presented with features typical of paroxysmal dystonic choreoathetosis. He arrived at the hospital complaining of a fever that had been present for four days, suggesting a viral etiology, but he did not exhibit any involuntary movements. The routine panel suggests both dengue and typhoid as potential culprits. Consequently, during the ward stay, the patient developed involuntary movements in bilateral upper limbs, lower limbs, and face. Co-infection with both dengue and typhoid is seldom seen, with an increasing number of cases in the recent few years. These situations can sometimes put the treating physician in a difficult situation with respect to management. This case is being discussed because of its rare manifestation caused by a rare co-infection.
