Voriconazole-induced periostitis post lung transplantation.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2022. 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
Voriconazole is a broad-spectrum triazole antifungal used to treat invasive fungal infections. It is commonly used prophylactically in immunocompromized patient cohorts, including transplant recipients. Diffuse periostitis is a very rare complication of chronic voriconazole use. It is associated with diffuse bone pain, elevated serum alkaline phosphatase and fluorine levels. Characteristic imaging findings include periosteal thickening with a dense, nodular, irregular and often bilateral pattern. We describe the case of a 71-year-old female who presented with multifocal bone pain six years following double lung transplantation. Her post transplantation course had been complicated by a life threatening episode of sepsis secondary to Scedosporium apiospermum, a rare invasive fungal infection following which lifelong prophylaxis with oral Voriconazole was commenced. We discuss the characteristic clinical and imaging manifestations of this rare condition.
