Successful desensitization to liposomal amphotericin B for the treatment of disseminated cryptococcosis in pregnancy: a case report.
Article in ASM case reports, 2026. 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
Background: Cryptococcosis is the most common opportunistic fungal infection in people with human immunodeficiency virus. On a global scale, it causes 15% of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-related mortality. Case Summary: We report the case of a 21-year-old cisgender pregnant woman living with human immunodeficiency virus who presented with headache and photophobia. Her clinical course was complicated by recurrent hospital admissions for disseminated cryptococcosis and a life-threatening reaction to liposomal amphotericin B, the mainstay of treatment. A desensitization protocol was implemented, allowing for continuation of therapy during pregnancy. Conclusion: The management of cryptococcosis in pregnancy is challenging due to the potential teratogenic effects of antifungals used and the limited therapeutic options available. This case highlights the complexities of treatment in pregnancy and demonstrates successful desensitization to liposomal amphotericin B during pregnancy.
