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

A 4-year-old domestic shorthair cat from Switzerland presented with seizures and peripheral lymphadenomegaly. Thoracic radiographs demonstrated cranioventral pulmonary masses and enlargement of the cranial mediastinal and tracheobronchial lymph nodes. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed generalized lymphadenopathy characterized by rounded, homogeneously hypoechoic lymph nodes with an effaced hilus. Imaging differentials included lymphoma, feline coronavirus-associated granulomatous disease, and other fungal infections; cytology and culture confirmed mucormycosis. The pulmonary masses and lymphadenomegaly initially responded to azole therapy; however, they later progressed despite further treatment, and the cat was humanely euthanized 8 months after diagnosis. This case highlights an atypical presentation of mucormycosis in an immunocompetent adult cat, with an unusual lesion distribution localized within the lymphatic system, respiratory system, and suspected central nervous system involvement.
