Nodular lymphangitis: a distinctive clinical entity with finite etiologies.
Article in Current infectious disease reports, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Nodular lymphangitis, characterized by inflammatory nodules along the lymphatics draining a primary skin infection, most commonly follows superficial inoculation with Sporothrix schenckii, Nocardia brasiliensis, Mycobacterium marinum, Leishmania (Viannia) panamensis/guyanensis, and Francisella tularensis. Epidemiologic context, clinical presentation, and presumed incubation period help to predict the specific etiologic microorganism. Sporotrichosis, often occurring in gardeners, remains the most recognized cause of nodular lymphangitis. Injuries sustained in marine environments suggest Mycobacterium marinum infection. An incubation time of 1 to 5 days, a painful chancre at the initial lesion site, and prominent tender lymphadenitis strongly implicate tularemia. Frankly purulent discharge from the primary lesion is associated with some infections due to Francisella and Nocardia species. Lesions failing to respond to empirical treatment should usually be biopsied. A detailed history and clues from the physical examination, supplemented by biopsy specimens in selected circumstances, should allow specific therapy for most patients.
