Progressive Disseminated Histoplasmosis in an Immunocompetent Host: A Rare Presentation of an Uncommon Disease.
Article in Acta bio-medica : Atenei Parmensis, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 Histoplasmosis, a systemic fungal infection caused by Histoplasma capsulatum is predominantly seen in immunocompromised cases. It is usually endemic, although sporadic cases have been reported. Following initial infection to the lungs, it disseminates to various organs by lymphatic and hematogenous routes. Clinical features are non-specific and depend on the extent and severity of organ involvement. A Biopsy is required for diagnosis and timely intervention decreases morbidity and mortality. Our case report describes an atypical association of progressive disseminated Histoplasmosis with bone marrow involvement in an immunocompetent adult from a non-endemic region and alerts the clinicians to a rare yet life-threatening mycosis.
