An atypical presentation of malaria in a 19-year-old woman.
Article in IDCases, 2022. 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
We describe an atypical presentation of malaria in a 19-year-old female who emigrated from Nigeria to the United States one year prior to presentation. Her primary complaint was fever and occipital headache radiating down to the neck. Rapid antigen testing was positive for Plasmodium vivax/ovale and microscopy demonstrated the same. She received treatment with atovaquone-proguanil with improvement in symptoms but was lost to outpatient follow up. This case is unusual in several aspects: the 12-month latency in disease manifestation after her last epidemiologic exposure and the recovery of P. vivax/ovale which is uncommon in Nigeria. Appropriate identification of travel history, clinical presentation and disease epidemiology are necessary to guide pharmacologic treatment.
