Early congenital syphilis and femur agenesis: a case study.
Article in BMC pediatrics, 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
introductionEarly congenital syphilis (PCS) is recognized as a preventable but frequent condition with the potential for intrauterine and perinatal multisystemic severity. The aim of this study is to present a case report of early CS with an uncommon occurrence of femoral agenesis and to emphasize the importance of prenatal care, diagnosis, treatment and mother–infant follow-up. CASE REPORT: Male newborn (NB), born at term by vaginal delivery, APGAR 9/9, Appropriate for Gestational Age (AGA), hospitalized with one day of life in a neonatal intermediate care unit for the treatment of PCS in a hospital maternal and child care facility that cares for patients through the Unified Health System (SUS) in the state of Pará. On physical examination of the NB, a short limb was observed, and radiographic imaging revealed aplasia of the femur isolated from other alterations.
conclusionThe prevalence of PCS results in failure in the health system, resulting in tragic outcomes, among which we question the rare occurrence of femoral aplasia whose functional, social and psychological prognoses are potentially tragic and for which extensive discussion and investigations in the literature are still lacking.
