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

Background: Meningitis caused by Case presentation: A 73-year-old man with a history of hypertension, alcohol use, and atrial fibrillation presented with acute lower back pain, confusion, persistent vomiting, headache, lethargy, and low-grade fever (37.9 °C). He also demonstrated a positive Lasegue's sign and had elevated inflammatory markers without an obvious infectious source. The patient experienced a favorable outcome with no neurological sequelae after receiving treatment with ceftriaxone 2g every 12 h, initiated from the first day of arrival at the emergency department. Conclusions: Challenging but achievable, the diagnosis was made by integrating clinical history, microbiological findings, and radiological results. In particular, multiplex PCR played a crucial role in the prompt diagnosis of
