Splenic Rupture in Infectious Mononucleosis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Splenic ruptures are rarely seen in infectious mononucleosis (IM), caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). It is a self-limiting viral infection characterized by fever, pharyngitis, and lymphadenopathy. While most cases are mild and resolve without complications, rare and severe complications can arise, including splenic rupture, which is a potentially life-threatening event. Previous case reports have linked splenic rupture to IM with increased splenic size. We present an atypical case report of splenic rupture in a young adult diagnosed with IM, whose spleen was found to be of normal size. This study emphasizes the need for physicians to be more vigilant and closely observe for splenic ruptures in IM patients, despite having normal splenic sizes. This would contribute to reducing both the mortality and morbidity associated with atraumatic splenic ruptures.
