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

This article describes viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic infections, which are not endemic and little known in Germany. Avian influenza, Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and the plague can all lead to severe pulmonary complications with a high mortality. In addition, there is a risk of nosocomial spread and therefore patients must always be isolated. Melioidosis, blastomycosis, paracoccidioidomycosis, and histoplasmosis are primarily often misclassified as community-acquired pneumonia due to typical causative organisms. A detailed anamnesis focussing on exposure in endemic areas is key to the diagnosis. Paragonimiasis is often manifested a few weeks after consumption of raw seafood and pronounced eosinophilia is typical. Relevant aspects of the epidemiology, clinical course, treatment and, if applicable, prevention are presented as cases of these diseases can occur at any time in Germany.
