1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: New species of Case presentation: We present the case of a patient who experienced fever, myalgia, rash, and inoculation eschars following dozens of tick bites while hiking in the Amazon rainforest. Laboratory results showed lymphopenia, neutrophilia, hepatic cytolysis and cholestasis, and a C-reactive protein level of 78 mg/L. Serology tests for HIV, hepatitis A, B, C, and E; cytomegalovirus; syphilis; and Q fever were negative. NS1 antigen, dengue, and leptospirosis PCR tests were also negative. A skin biopsy of an ulcerated papule on the leg revealed a polymorphic dermal inflammatory infiltrate with intramacrophagic Gram-negative bacilli. Blood PCR for Discussion and conclusion: Novel species of
