Case report: Histoplasmosis presenting as asymptomatic hypercalcemia detected on routine laboratory testing in a pediatric kidney transplant recipient.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Among all infections occurring in pediatric kidney transplant recipients, approximately 1%-5% are fungal. Most fungal infections occur in the first 6 months following kidney transplantation. We present the case of a 15-year-old boy with a history of a kidney transplant 4 years ago, who was found to have asymptomatic moderate hypercalcemia on routine laboratory testing, along with an acute deterioration of his kidney function markers. The cause of his acute kidney injury was likely related to hypercalcemia. An extensive workup for hypercalcemia revealed infection with
