Postpartum pulmonary cryptococcosis combined with pulmonary embolism: a case report.
Article in BMC pulmonary medicine, 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
Pulmonary cryptococcosis is an opportunistic infection of the lungs caused by cryptococcus, usually occurring in immunosuppressed patients. Pulmonary embolism is a type of venous thromboembolism. Pregnancy and postpartum are risk factors for pulmonary embolism. To date, no cases of pulmonary cryptococcosis co-occurring with pulmonary embolism in the postpartum period have been documented. This case report describes a 39-year-old female who was diagnosed with HIV-negative pulmonary cryptococcosis with pulmonary embolism 42 days postpartum and experienced improvement in her condition after active antifungal and anticoagulant therapy. Given the physiologic immunosuppression and hypercoagulable state associated with pregnancy, the possibility of pulmonary cryptococcosis combined with pulmonary embolism should be considered in postpartum women with chest pain and newly discovered lung shadow.
