1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Syphilis is an old disease that remains to be a major threat in the modern world. In the last decade, we have seen an exponential rise in the number of new cases. While this surge is universal, some places appear to be more affected than others, such as the southern and midwestern states in the United States. In Missouri, the syphilis epidemic strikes almost everywhere, from rural to metropolitan areas, affecting various age groups and subpopulations. We conducted this narrative review focusing on published data regarding syphilis in Missouri, and discussing contemporary risk factors for such an unprecedented spread, and treatment and prevention options. While rurality, social stigma, and medication shortage play a role in this disease spread, new plans are being adopted in the state for mitigation of its burden.
