Atypical presentation for a gastrointestinal basidiobolomycosis and rare side effect of Voriconazole: A case report and literature review.
Article in Medical mycology case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Gastrointestinal basidiobolomycosis (GIB) is a rare fungal infection often misdiagnosed with other gastrointestinal disorders. We report a case of a 6-year-old boy from Saudi Arabia who presented with fever, abdominal pain, and weight loss, initially suspected to have inflammatory bowel disease. Despite antibiotics, symptoms persisted, leading to a GIB diagnosis with liver involvement. IV voriconazole improved his condition but caused visual hallucinations, managed by dose adjustments. This case underscores the need for early suspicion of GIB in endemic areas and highlights the importance of prompt diagnosis and a multidisciplinary approach to improve outcomes and reduce complications.
