Lemierre Syndrome With Atypical Cardiological Involvement and Fatal Outcome.
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.

We describe a case of a 35-year-old male patient who presented with a sore throat, hoarseness, and swelling on the right side of the face and neck for one week, followed by a sudden onset of shortness of breath for one day. His condition deteriorated rapidly, and he was intubated and moved to the Intensive Care Unit. There was no recorded fever or history of fever. A moderate pericardial effusion was discovered by bedside echocardiogram. A computed tomography (CT) scan showed bilateral consolidation, septic emboli, mediastinal empyema, pulmonary embolism, and thrombosed veins. A positive blood culture for
