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

Central nervous system (CNS) toxoplasmosis is a life-threatening opportunistic infection most often reported in patients with HIV/AIDS and solid organ transplantation. Its occurrence in immunocompetent patients is rare and even less commonly reported in those receiving single-agent immunosuppressive therapy. We present a unique case of CNS toxoplasmosis in a 68-year-old seropositive female with autoimmune hepatitis maintained on long-term mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) monotherapy. She presented with a 2-day history of confusion and expressive aphasia, without fever or focal neurologic deficits. Brain MRI revealed multiple ring-enhancing lesions, prompting a broad differential diagnosis including malignancy, abscess, and demyelination. A stereotactic biopsy confirmed necrotic tissue harboring
