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

Sporotrichosis, a neglected zoonotic fungal infection, is becoming increasingly prevalent in Brazil, with cats being the primary source of human transmission. This report details the first documented case of zoonotic human sporotrichosis in Mato Grosso State, a non-endemic area; the infection was acquired from an animal in an endemic area. The patient developed a subcutaneous ulcerative lesion following contact with a cat from Minas Gerais State, a known disease hotspot. Initially misdiagnosed, the infection was later confirmed as Sporothrix brasiliensis after fungal culture and molecular analysis. The patient was successfully treated with itraconazole. This case highlights the importance of considering sporotrichosis in the differential diagnosis, even in non-endemic areas, due to the risk of zoonotic transmission. It also emphasizes the need for a One Health approach to improve surveillance, diagnostic accuracy, and management of emerging fungal diseases in endemic and expanding areas.
