Eosinophilia: causes and pathobiology in persons with prior exposures in tropical areas with an emphasis on parasitic infections.
Article in Current infectious disease reports, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Eosinophilia in patients exposed to tropical or subtropical environments is caused most commonly by helminth (worm) infections. Besides a detailed exposure history, the diagnostic approach must consider other infections and noninfectious causes of eosinophilia, as treatments for many of these disorders differ.
