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

The clinical mortality of cryptococcal meningitis (CM) is high. There is no report of hypopituitarism associated with HIV negative CM so far. The patients with hypopituitarism complicated with CM are easy to be misdiagnosed and mistreated. A patient with hypopituitarism and HIV negative CM was admitted to Weihai Municipal Hospital on August 27, 2021. The patient was treated for 18 years after craniopharyngioma with headache for more than 2 months, nausea and vomiting for 4 days. MRI showed abnormal enhancement of the right basal ganglia, edema of surrounding tissue, and multiple striated enhancement of the bilateral cerebellar hemisphere. The smear of cerebrospinal fluid showed a large number of fungi and
