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

Cryptococcal meningoencephalitis is a systemic fungal infection in immunocompromised and immunocompetent individuals. This study investigated the clinical characteristics and factors associated with mortality in HIV-associated and non-HIV-associated cryptococcal meningoencephalitis in a resource-limited setting. This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with cryptococcal meningoencephalitis between January 2009 and December 2019 at a tertiary teaching hospital in Thailand. Overall, 1019 patients with cryptococcal meningoencephalitis were enrolled, and 923 (90.6%) were HIV-positive. The patients with HIV-associated cryptococcal meningoencephalitis were younger than the HIV-negative patients (37 versus 56 years,
