Atypical Lemierre syndrome with thrombophlebitis of the external jugular vein: A case report.
Article in IDCases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Lemierre syndrome is a rare and potentially fatal complication of acute oropharyngeal infection, typically causing thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein and sepsis. We present the case of a 65-year-old female patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus who presented with otalgia and left hemifacial pain for eight days. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the neck showed a collection in the left submandibular space. Venous Doppler revealed thrombosis in the left external jugular vein, representing an anatomical variant or an atypical presentation of the disease. In secretion culture,
