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

All of the endemic mycoses have cutaneous and mucocutaneous manifestations that are most commonly seen when patients have disseminated infection. Biopsy of skin lesions is simple and safe and can assist in making a timely diagnosis of disseminated infection. Primary cutaneous inoculation infection has been reported with all of the endemic mycoses, but is rare. In this situation, a nodule or ulcer occurs at the inoculation site, is often accompanied by lymphangitis and regional lymphadenopathy, and systemic symptoms and signs as almost always absent. Mucosal lesions are common with disseminated histoplasmosis, but also have been described in patients who have disseminated blastomycosis and coccidioidomycosis. Biopsy is essential to rule out cancer and allows a rapid diagnosis of the endemic fungal infection.
