Ehrlichiosis Manifesting as Septic Shock and Respiratory Failure With Alveolar Hemorrhage in an Immunocompetent Patient.
Article in Cureus, 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
Ehrlichiosis is a bacterial infection transmitted through the bite of an infected lone star tick. The disease presents as a flu-like illness that is typically mild and self-limited. However, it can progress to severe disease with multiorgan involvement and numerous complications. We present a case of a 75-year-old immunocompetent female patient who developed septic shock and respiratory failure with alveolar hemorrhage after tick exposure. She was diagnosed with ehrlichiosis based on molecular testing via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and completed a 10-day course of doxycycline with clinical improvement. Alveolar hemorrhage is a rare but serious complication of ehrlichiosis. This case emphasizes the importance of detailed history taking and the value of pattern recognition to facilitate timely diagnosis and treatment of ehrlichiosis, which is necessary for improved patient outcomes.
