A mass in the upper abdomen derived from Talaromyces marneffei infected lymphadenopathy: a case report.
Article in BMC infectious diseases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundAn upper abdominal mass without tenderness often indicates a benign or malignant tumor once liver or spleen hyperplasia has been excluded. A lymphadenopathic mass from Talaromyces marneffei infection is rare. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 29-year-old human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected man who presented with an upper abdominal mass and without any symptoms related with infection. Histopathology and next-generation sequencing (NGS) following biopsy of the mass confirmed T. marneffei-infected lymphadenopathy, and the patient was successfully treated with amphotericin B and itraconazole.
conclusionsThis case report suggests that potential fungal infection should be considered during the diagnostic workup of a mass in clinical practice.
