A fungal nightmare: A rare and deadly presentation of disseminated histoplasmosis.
Article in IDCases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Histoplasma capsulatum is a dimorphic fungus commonly associated with localized pulmonary disease but can often spread to various organs causing disseminated histoplasmosis. Once the disseminated disease reaches the central nervous system (CNS), mortality rates increase significantly and can reach up to 40 %. The prognosis is frequently determined by adequate and timely diagnosis. Treatment often includes amphotericin B for a total of 4-6 weeks followed by itraconazole for at least 1 year. Herein, we present the case of a 65-year-old male who initially presented with worsening headaches and was later found to have disseminated histoplasmosis.
