Diagnosis of Human Endemic Mycoses Caused by Thermally Dimorphic Fungi: From Classical to Molecular Methods.
Review in Journal of fungi (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 endemic mycoses are potentially fatal diseases caused by a diverse group of fungi that can alter their morphology in response to an increase in temperature. These thermally dimorphic fungi affect both healthy and immunocompromised hosts, causing a substantial health and economic burden. Despite this, the diagnosis of endemic mycoses is still a formidable challenge for several reasons, including similar symptomatology, limited utility of classical diagnostic methods, inaccessibility to reliable molecular approaches in most endemic areas, and a lack of clinical suspicion out of these regions. This review summarizes essential knowledge on thermally dimorphic fungi and the life-threatening diseases they cause. The principle, advantages and limitations of the methods traditionally used for their diagnosis are also described, along with the application status and future directions for the development of alternative diagnostic strategies, which could help to reduce the disease burden in endemic areas.
