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

abstractSyphilis, a chronic bacterial infection caused by Treponema pallidum , is now reemerging as a global public health problem, particularly among men who have homosexual relationships. Because syphilis could mimic various diseases and could coexist with other sexually transmitted diseases, accurate recognition of syphilis, with its versatile presentations, can challenge even the most experienced clinician. Here, we presented a case of syphilis mimicking mpox in a homosexual patient with HIV infection and summarized the key points in differentiating syphilis from mpox.
