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

Cryptosporidium is a protozoan parasite that can cause respiratory and gastrointestinal illnesses with watery diarrhea. Severe disease may occur in immunocompromised patients, especially those with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or metastatic mucosal melanoma on immunosuppressive therapy. We report a 72-year-old man with metastatic mucosal melanoma treated with surgery, radiation, and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes therapy complicated by hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and autoimmune colitis. He presented with an acute profuse diarrhea despite sulfasalazine and budesonide therapy for his colitis. Intestinal biopsy confirmed Cryptosporidium parvum. Although uncommon, cryptosporidial infection should be suspected in immunocompromised patients with persistent diarrhea. Diagnosis is via stool microscopy, polymerase chain reaction, or enzyme immunoassay.
