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

A 59-year-old Laotian male with a past medical history of multiple myeloma on peritoneal dialysis (PD) presented with abdominal pain and peritoneal eosinophilia. He was treated empirically for bacterial peritonitis and discharged although his PD fluid did not isolate any pathogens. He soon developed a partial small bowel obstruction and his serum Strongyloides IgG was positive. After treatment with ivermectin, stool microscopic examination showed Strongyloides stercoralis larvae. This case illustrates that the differential diagnosis of peritoneal eosinophilia should include typical and atypical infections in addition to an allergic or hypersensitivity type reaction.
