First Cases of Dengue Fever Confirmed in the National Hospitals of Zinder and Niamey.
Article in Case reports in infectious diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Dengue is an emerging arbovirus infection caused by any of the four serotypes of dengue virus (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4) and transmitted via the bite of a mosquito from the genus Aedes. We hereby report seven cases of dengue hospitalized at the infectious and tropical disease departments of the National Hospitals of Zinder and Niamey from October 22, 2023, to December 05, 2023. All the cases presented fever, vomiting, algic, and hemorrhagic syndrome. Results from the complete blood count analysis revealed that all the patients had thrombocytopenia, six cases have leukopenia and two cases have anemia. Furthermore, one case of kidney failure was recorded. The case confirmation was conducted at the National Reference Laboratory for Arbovirus on blood samples using qualitative Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR). The technic is based on the amplification of any of the four serotypes of dengue virus nucleic acid using specific primers and probes as described by Wagner et al. All the cases recovered after hospitalization.
