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
Two immunocompromised patients with relapsing babesiosis were cured using a well-tolerated course of tafenoquine (171 and 212 days, respectively), with negative polymerase chain reactivity intentionally exceeding the 120-day lifespan of erythrocytes before discontinuing the tafenoquine. During the first 10 days of tafenoquine both patients also received an atovaquone-containing drug regimen. This was prescribed based on the demonstrated benefit of atovaquone on the efficacy of tafenoquine for completely eradicating
