A Fatal Abdominal Aortic Mycotic Aneurysm in a Child With Concurrent Pericarditis.
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
Mycotic aneurysms, also called infected aneurysms, are localized irreversible vascular dilations caused by arterial wall infection with subsequent vessel wall weakening. They are rare but potentially life-threatening conditions that can occur from bacterial seeding into an intact vascular wall or superinfection of a pre-existing aneurysm or atherosclerotic plaques. Risk factors in children include coarctation of the aorta, in-dwelling arterial catheters, postcardiac surgery, or immunosuppressive states. We report a rare case of an abdominal aortic mycotic aneurysm in a four-year-old patient with concurrent pericarditis. Her nonspecific presentation with fever and body pains posed a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. We discuss the risk factors, diagnosis, and management of this condition.
