A case of typhoid fever with neurological presentation.
Article in IDCases, 2025. 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
Introduction: Typhoid fever, leading to systemic disease due to Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi, typically has gastrointestinal manifestation, however, neurologic complications-although uncommon, can arise. Aseptic meningitis and optic neuritis are rare manifestations that can be challenging to diagnose. Case summary: Our patient a 31-year male presented with fever for 18 days associated with headache, rash, vomiting, diarrhea and progressive neurological symptoms in form of disorientation and blurred vision. On examination there was bilateral sixth cranial nerve palsy. Investigations were positive for typhoid fever with aseptic meningitis and optic neuritis. He was successfully treated with intravenous ceftriaxone and corticosteroids. Conclusion: Atypical neurological symptoms of typhoid fever must be recognized. To prevent complications, early diagnosis and treatment are important. Typhoid fever should be considered in febrile patients with unexplainable neurological symptoms, especially in an endemic region.
