Necrotizing pneumonia and empyema caused by Neisseria flavescens infection.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Neisseria flavescens is an uncommon pathogen of human infection, pneumonia and empyema caused by N. flavescens is rarely reported. Herein, we report a 56-year-old diabetic patient presenting necrotising pneumonia and empyema due to N. flavescens infection. The main clinical manifestation of this patient was high fever, sticky pus and gradually aggravating dyspnea. The chest computed tomography (CT) scan showed there are mass of high density areas around hilus of the left lung, hollow sign with inflammation also appeared. A biopsy specimen was taken from the left principal bronchus by lung puncture biopsy and showed necrosis and inflammation. Microscopic examination of direct smear and culture of sticky pus, much more gram-negative diplococcus was present, pathogen was further identified by Vitek NH card, Vitek MS and confirmed as N. flavescens by 16S rRNA gene sequencing finally. Anti-infection therapy following the antimicrobial susceptibility test results was effectively. To our knowledge, this is the first report of pulmonary infection caused by N. flavescens.
