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

Visceral leishmaniasis is a worldwide distributed infectious zoonotic disease caused by protozoan pathogens of the genus Leishmania which are transmitted by sandflies. The main hosts are dogs. The prevalence in Germany is low. Predominantly affected are migrants and travelers returning from Mediterranean countries. The main clinical symptoms are fever, hepatosplenomegaly and pancytopenia. The diagnosis is made by polymerase chain reaction of peripheral blood or direct detection of Leishmania in bone marrow aspirates. Lesions of the liver and spleen can easily be misinterpreted as numerous benign or malignant differential diagnoses. Treatment is always systemic with antiparasitic drugs. Immunosuppressed patients with HIV co-infection or after solid organ transplantation are prone to infection as well as atypical and severe courses.
