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

Cerebral toxoplasmosis is one of the most common opportunistic infections among AIDS patients. Clinical and neuroimaging manifestations are diverse and non-specific, resulting in frequent delayed diagnosis and even misdiagnosis, leading to neurological impairment, coma, and death. In addition to clinical and serological examinations, multimodal neuroimaging is indispensable for early diagnosis and subsequent treatment evaluation. Indeed, functional magnetic resonance imaging technologies and positron emission tomography provide complementary information for early diagnosis and treatment, which can improve prognosis when combined with prevention strategies. Recent advances in vaccine development have provided new hope for the prevention of cerebral toxoplasmosis. This article reviews multimodal imaging evaluation strategies and other recent clinical advances for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of AIDS-related cerebral toxoplasmosis.
