Pregnant lady with eosinophilia: common cause, uncommon association.
Article in Medical journal, Armed Forces India, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Peripheral eosinophilia can have a myriad of causes and presents a diagnostic challenge in everyday practice. Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia (TPE), seen commonly in tropics, is an immunological reaction to filarial parasites. This disease can present with clinical features that closely mimic asthma, eosinophilic pneumonia, and Loffler's syndrome. Differentiating between these diseases is essential owing to marked differences in treatment. This can be further challenging in pregnancy as any wrong treatment is likely to affect both the mother and the child. We report a case of a pregnant lady who presented with eosinophilia and of how she was worked up to the correct diagnosis. There are only few reported cases of TPE in pregnancy, and there are no reported cases from India. The case also underlines the approach required in these patients to reach the correct diagnosis.
