Symmetrical Peripheral Gangrene in an Indian Child with Severe Scrub Typhus.

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
Scrub typhus is one of the common causes for acute febrile illness in monsoon and post-monsoon season in our region. It usually presents as fever, rash, and thrombocytopenia with or without multiorgan dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Infrequently, it can cause focal or symmetrical peripheral gangrene (SPG). Here, we report a 5-year-old female who presented with acute febrile illness with MODS and SPG in bilateral lower limbs. The diagnosis of scrub typhus was confirmed with positive scrub typhus IgM antibodies. She recovered completely after combination therapy with doxycycline and azithromycin, and organ supportive therapy (mechanical ventilation, vasoactive drugs, and continuous renal replacement therapy) in the pediatric intensive care unit.
