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

Toxoplasmosis is a common zoonotic infection with various transmission mechanisms and wide distribution worldwide. Its probability of causing disease is related to alterations in the immune system as well as the parasite’s virulence. This study presents four cases of patients from rainforest areas in Colombia who did not have any known immunosuppression but do have a diagnosis of toxoplasmosis with pulmonary involvement, confirmed by serology. One of them also developed hypoxemic ventilatory failure and myocarditis. This outbreak of toxoplasmosis occurred in military personnel after coming into contact with common sources of exposure in the Colombian Amazon during a military training exercise. This article includes the diagnostic process, clinical manifestations, treatment, and importance of the parasite’s genotypic variants.
