Laryngeal leishmaniasis presenting with hoarseness in a child from the highland of Nepal: A rare diagnostic challenge.
Article in IDCases, 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
Leishmaniasis, predominantly a disease endemic to rural lowlands in Nepal, is transmitted by sand flies and is extremely unusual at highland elevations. Respiratory mucosal involvement in leishmaniasis is rare, causing a diagnostic dilemma. We report a 6-year-old child from a hilly region of Nepal (2500 m above mean sea level), presenting with hoarseness of voice for a two-month duration, and ultimately diagnosed as isolated laryngeal leishmaniasis. This presentation highlights the diagnostic challenge in the context of evolving disease ecology, posed by the diverse clinical spectrum of leishmaniasis in the pediatric population and the importance of this differential in any unexplained granulomatous inflammation.
