[A 55-year-old woman with cough, fever, swelling of joints, and exanthema after a trip to Ecuador].

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
A 55-year-old woman presented 18 months after a trip to Ecuador with night sweat, malaise, and an unclear lesion of the lung. Computed tomography of the lung showed a nodular lesion of 14 mm. Antibodies against Histoplasma capsulatum were detected in the complement fixation text (CFT) and IgG western blot. Re-examination of a formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) lung-biopsy revealed yeasts after silver staining, compatible with H. capsulatum , which was verified by extraction and amplification of DNA from FFPE. After therapy with itraconazole 400 mg/day, the patient showed an uneventful clinical recovery without regression of the lung lesion. The serological follow-up examination after 17 months showed CFT without pathological findings.
