Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Disseminated Strongyloidiasis in the United States-A Multicenter Network Analysis.
Article in The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2024. 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
Human strongyloidiasis is a potentially life-threatening parasitic disease among immunocompromised hosts. We aim to determine the factors and mortality associated with disseminated strongyloidiasis. We conducted a U.S.-based multicenter retrospective cohort study to determine 90-day clinical outcomes for people diagnosed with Strongyloides infection in the TriNetX patient database. We identified adult patients with the International Classification of Diseases (10th revision, clinical modification) code for Strongyloides infection (B78) or a positive Strongyloides IgG antibody test and captured outcomes at 90 days. We identified 5,434 patients with strongyloidiasis, of whom 48 had disseminated strongyloidiasis for 0.9% prevalence of disseminated disease. Systemic connective tissue disorders, pulmonary eosinophilia, liver cirrhosis, blood disorders (monoclonal gammopathy, aplastic anemia, and lymphoid malignancy), malnutrition, alcohol use disorder, and transplantation status were frequent in patients with disseminated disease. Mortality was significantly higher in people with disseminated disease at 30 days (21%). The 90-day risk of hospitalization, bacteremia, and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was higher in those with disseminated infection. People with disseminated strongyloidiasis had a heightened risk of hospitalization, bacteremia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and mortality. The population at risk for severe strongyloidiasis infection is evolving, reflecting conditions in which glucocorticoids or additional immunosuppressive medications are commonly used for treatment.
