The Radiological Mimicry of Ring-Enhancing Lesions: Cerebral Toxoplasmosis Masquerading as Metastatic Disease.

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
A 42-year-old man presented with progressive confusion and was found to have multiple intracranial lesions with surrounding vasogenic oedema on non-contrast computed tomography (CT), initially raising suspicion for metastatic brain disease. Subsequent contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed multiple ring-enhancing lesions, indicating the consideration of alternative diagnoses, particularly opportunistic infections. Further workup confirmed undiagnosed HIV/AIDS with severe immunosuppression and positive
