1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundTalaromyces marneffei is an opportunistic pathogen that infects immunodeficient and immunocompromised patients. We presented a pediatric patient with a diagnosis of T. marneffei infection who was followed up in the Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Centre. CASE PRESENTATION: The child was a 5-year-old girl with persistent cough and gasping over 2 months who was confirmed with T. marneffei infection by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid culture and high-throughput sequencing technology. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was negative according to a serum-specific antibody test. She was treated with amphotericin B and itraconazole as antifungal agents, with good clinical response. At follow-up, high-resolution computed tomography showed a mosaic sign in the whole lung field with a diagnosis of post-infectious bronchiolitis obliterans (PIBO) as the sequela. She has a mutated COPA gene with uncertain pathogenic potential on whole-exome sequencing.

conclusionsClinicians should consider PIBO as a possible sequela in an HIV-negative paediatric patient with T. marneffei infection.
