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

Pertussis is a highly contagious infection associated with significant morbidity and mortality in young infants despite widespread vaccination programs. Early recognition and treatment are important to reduce disease severity, shorten symptom duration, and limit transmission. We report the case of a 51-day-old previously healthy boy who presented with a 4-day history of whooping cough, apnea, circumoral cyanosis, post-tussive emesis, and reduced oral intake. Pertussis was confirmed by a nasopharyngeal respiratory multiplex PCR panel detecting
