ReviewTherapeutic advances in infectious disease
Histoplasmosis in African children: clinical features, diagnosis and treatment.
Review in Therapeutic advances in infectious disease. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Most of the reviews on histoplasmosis documented in literature have been in the adult population. Very few studies highlight the peculiarities associated with histoplasmosis in Africa especially in the pediatric population. This review addresses the above concerns with clinical summaries and diagnosis of some case reports of histoplasmosis in African children. We highlighted 44 case reports of histoplasmosis in African children (1950-2021) distributed across Western Africa (38.6%,
