Fusarium falciforme infection of foot in a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a case report and review of the literature.
Review in Mycopathologia, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Fungal infections of foot in patients with diabetes are not uncommon; however, foot infection due to Fusarium species has been rarely reported. We report here a case of a 50-year-old male with type 2 diabetes who developed multiple spontaneous nodular lesions on right foot without any systemic symptoms and signs for 6 months. The lesions were unresponsive to broad-spectrum antibacterial treatment. Fine needle aspiration cytology of nodular lesions revealed the presence of fungal hyphae, and Fusarium species was isolated from the same sample which was identified as Fusarium solani species complex: Fusarium falciforme. Radiological investigations and blood culture ruled out any dissemination of the disease. The lesions healed after voriconazole therapy for 3 months. No relapse was noted at the end of the next 6-month follow-up. All reported cases of Fusarium infection of foot in patients with diabetes in English and non-English literature since 1970 have been reviewed.
