The Mouth Tells the Tale: Kaposi Sarcoma as the First Clue to Undiagnosed AIDS.
Article in Cureus, 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
Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is a vascular neoplasm associated with human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8), most commonly seen in individuals with advanced human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/AIDS. We report the case of a 52-year-old male patient with no known HIV history who presented with a three- to four-month history of worsening sore throat, oral pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and systemic symptoms including night sweats and fatigue. The patient was eventually diagnosed with oral KS based on pathological results. This case highlights KS as a potential initial manifestation of advanced HIV/AIDS and the importance of early recognition and treatment.
