Cardiopulmonary Echinococcus Infection.
Article in The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cystic echinococcosis (CE), a zoonotic infection caused by Echinococcus granulosus, primarily affects the liver and lungs. However, cardiac involvement is uncommon. This case report presents an unusual instance of heart involvement in a patient with CE. A 28-year-old man from India presented with a persistent cough and hemoptysis. Imaging revealed bilateral lung lesions along with cystic lesions in his right ventricle. The echinococcal serology result was positive, and a surgical biopsy from the lung demonstrated necrotizing granulomatous inflammation with laminated eosinophilic material, consistent with echinococcosis. This case highlights the possibility of cardiac involvement in CE and the challenges associated with its diagnosis and management.
