A double threat: CNS toxoplasmosis and CMV encephalitis in a heart transplant recipient
Article in Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Medicas (Cordoba, Argentina), 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
A 73-year-old immunocompromised woman with a history of heart transplant presented with cognitive decline and left-sided neurological deficits. Imaging revealed atypical brain lesions. Initial biopsy was inconclusive. Despite extensive infectious workup, diagnosis remained unclear until a second brain biopsy confirmed central nervous system toxoplasmosis and cytomegalovirus (CMV) encephalitis. Treatment with antiparasitic and antiviral agents was initiated, but the patient's condition deteriorated, leading to palliative care. This case highlights diagnostic challenges in immunocompromised patients, the importance of considering atypical presentations of CNS infections, and the potential necessity of repeat biopsies when initial evaluations are non-diagnostic.
