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

We report a rare case of disseminated paracoccidioidomycosis in an immunocompetent 41-year-old woman presenting with granulomatous skin lesions, neurological involvement, and subretinal fibrosis leading to exudative retinal detachment and permanent vision loss. Diagnosis was confirmed by direct microscopy, histopathology, and serology. The patient was treated with liposomal amphotericin B followed by trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, showing significant clinical improvement. This case highlights an atypical presentation of paracoccidioidomycosis with ocular and central nervous system involvement, emphasizing the need to consider the disease in differential diagnoses even in unusual forms, especially in endemic regions.
