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

methodsWe conducted a retrospective descriptive analysis of all cases diagnosed with central nervous system cryptococcosis (Crypto-CNS) in HIV-positive patients admitted over 10 years (2010-2019) in a tertiary Romanian hospital. We examined their demographic, clinical, immunobiological, and imaging data, as well as their medical history, comorbidities, and coinfections.

resultsForty-two cases were admitted, with a male predominance (3.6:1) and a mean age of 33.3 years; 24% were diagnosed concomitantly with HIV infection and Crypto-CNS. All patients were severely immunosuppressed, with CD4 counts <200 cells/mm

conclusionsCrypto-CNS in HIV-positive patients mainly affects men and may be promoted by concomitant or recent tuberculosis.
