Clinical Aspects of Immune Damage in Cryptococcosis.
Article in Current fungal infection reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
purpose of reviewTo perform an extensive review of recent literature and provide an update on the current epidemiology, clinical features and management of cryptococcal disease with a focus on the differences between patients depending on their immune status. RECENT
findingsEmerging literature has highlighted the inflammatory pathophysiology and varied manifestations of cryptococcal infections in patients who are apparently healthy but paradoxically have a more critical clinical course compared to their immunosuppressed counterparts. SUMMARY: Non-HIV cryptococcal meningitis has greater mortality compared to that seen in HIV patients. Basic science experiments closely analyzing the underlying pathophysiological response to this infection have demonstrated the predominant role of T cell-mediated inflammatory injury in causing worse clinical outcomes. Further studies are needed to define the need for
