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

Tracheobronchial talaromycosis is uncommon in non-HIV infected patients. Reports on tracheobronchial talaromycosis presenting as a tumor-like lesion are also scarce, and the value of bronchoscopic cryosurgery in the treatment of tracheobronchial talaromycosis has not been mentioned. We report a case of tracheobronchial talaromycosis mimicking an airway tumor, which was diagnosed through bronchoscopic cryosurgery, next-generation sequencing(NGS), and tissue culture. The patient presented with neoplastic lesions in the airway and tested positive for anti-interferon-gamma autoantibody(AIGA). Clinical cure was achieved through bronchoscopic cryosurgery followed by a 2-week course of intravenous amphotericin B infusion and atomization induction therapy, along with 3 months of oral voriconazole maintenance therapy. In addition, we collected six reports summarizing the clinical data of tracheobronchial
