Disseminated Cryptococcosis in an Immunocompetent Child.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Disseminated cryptococcosis in children is a classic affliction associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or primary inherited immunodeficiency disorders (PID) with central nervous system being the most common site of dissemination. We report a rare case of disseminated cryptococcosis in an 11-year-old girl who presented with pulmonary involvement, hepatosplenomegaly, and generalized lymphadenopathy. No known inherited or acquired immune deficiencies were identified after a comprehensive laboratory work-up including genetic sequencing. She responded well to anti-fungal therapy (flucytosine and amphotericin followed by fluconazole) and is on regular follow-up.
