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

34 years old male from north-east India, a known case of retroviral disease, presented with shortness of breath and significant weight loss and was found to have pancytopenia, skin lesions, organomegaly, generalized lymphadenopathy, cavitary lung disease with very low CD4 counts. He failed to improve on empirical antitubercular therapy and further evaluation revealed features of disseminated talaromycosis on bone marrow studies. We hereby present an interesting case of a systemic fungal disease in the setting of advanced HIV infection.
