Degranulated Eosinophilia: An Unexpected Clue in Diagnosis of Ectopic Paragonimiasis.
Article in Acta parasitologica, 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
introductionParagonimiasis is an important food-borne parasitic zoonosis caused by Paragonimus spp. CASE PRESENTATION: This report details a case of Paragonimus infection in a 3-year-old boy in Southwest China, who presented with ectopic subcutaneous masses, which was originally based on an unexpected clue of degranulated eosinophilia, confirmed with a combination of epidemiological investigation and serum test for Paragonimus-specific antibody test.
conclusionsOur case indicates possible misdiagnosis of paragonimus-related disease in endemic climates, not to mention nonendemic areas, especially when it is difficult to find parasite or eggs in some settings. Furthermore, review of peripheral blood smear is of particular importance for clinical diagnosis, especially in today's modern society where automated analyzers are widely used and mainly relied upon. This case is presented not only because of its relative rarity but also for future references to both clinicians and technicians worldwide.
