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
Background: Scrub typhus, a vector-borne febrile illness caused by Materials and Methods: A retrospective, trend-based analysis was conducted using data from the IDSP portal covering 2009-2018. Data were extracted into Microsoft Excel and analyzed using SPSS version 20 and Epitools (version 2023.2). The Chi-square test for linear trend assessed temporal changes in the case fatality rate (CFR). Results: A total of 1,141 cases and 39 deaths were reported across 16 states/UTs, yielding an overall CFR of 3.4%. A significant decline in CFR was observed over the decade ( Conclusions: Scrub typhus shows a nationwide spread with seasonal peaks from October to January. Strengthened surveillance, early diagnosis, and public awareness are essential to reduce mortality and ensure standardized data reporting.
