Expanding Epidemiology: A Case of Pulmonary Disease Caused by
Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 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
A 61-year-old woman presented with progressive shortness of breath, cough with expectoration, hemoptysis, and fever for 2 months. On admission, altered parameters included low oxygen saturation, slightly elevated total leukocyte count, and elevated bilirubin and liver enzymes. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the chest revealed bilateral cystic bronchiectasis with multiple cavitary nodules. Ultrasonography of the abdomen revealed extrahepatic biliary obstruction, likely carcinomatous in etiology. She was started on antibiotics and percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage was done. The patient had to be intubated owing to worsening respiratory function. Antifungals were added subsequently due to raised galactomannan levels, but the patient died due to refractory hypokalemia. Postmortem lung biopsy sample showed septate hyphae on direct microscopy. The culture of the mini-bronchoalveolar lavage sample, as well as postmortem lung biopsy, grew a dematiaceous mold. Sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer region of the 18S ribosomal DNA identified the isolate to be
