Management of cryptococcal meningitis in sub-saharan Africa.
Review in Current HIV/AIDS reports, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Cryptococcal meningitis (CM) is a common form of meningitis in sub-Saharan Africa due to the high prevalence of HIV/AIDS. This report outlines the management of CM with a focus on resource-limited settings. Sections covered include epidemiology and diagnosis, pharmacotherapy, management of complications, timing of antiretrovirals, and primary and secondary prevention of CM. Emphasis has been given to recent articles and landmark trials, and opinion is given from the authors' own experiences.
