Imported Cutaneous Larva Migrans in an Adolescent Traveler: A Case Report From Chile.
Article in Cureus, 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
Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) is a parasitic dermatosis caused by the superficial migration of animal hookworm larvae in human skin, typically acquired through contact with contaminated soil or sand in tropical environments. We report the case of a 17-year-old female patient who presented in Chile with pruritic serpiginous skin lesions following recent travel to Brazil. Diagnosis was established clinically based on characteristic morphology and exposure history. The patient was treated with oral ivermectin, resulting in complete resolution of active lesions and symptoms. Given the rarity of locally reported cases in Chile, this report underscores the importance of clinical recognition in nonendemic settings to ensure prompt treatment and avoid unnecessary diagnostic procedures.
