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

Only a few studies have reported the relationship between immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) and scabies. A 30-year-old homosexual man who lived in a dorm was diagnosed with AIDS based on his CD4 count: 10/μL, HIV-1 real-time PCR: 100000 copies/mL, and pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP). Although he developed a rash on his face and back shortly before, it exacerbated rapidly, and a rise of eosinophils was noted in his blood after initiation of antiretroviral therapy. Initially, he was suspected of having IRIS of PCP with eosinophilia, but he was ultimately diagnosed with scabies, which was thought to be exacerbated by IRIS. He recovered completely from his symptoms and eosinophilia after combination therapy of ivermectin and sulfur formulations.
