Subcutaneous abscess due to the basidiomycete Phellinus mori in a patient with chronic granulomatous disease.
Article in Infection, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), a primary immunodeficiency caused by impaired phagocyte killing of intracellular pathogens, is characterized by recurrent, life-threatening, bacterial and fungal infections. As a result of improvements in microbiologic culture and identification techniques, a number of unique filamentous fungi have been reported as significant pathogens in patients with CGD. We report a case of subcutaneous basidiomycete Phellinus mori infection in a patient with CGD. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of human infection by this fungus. The causative fungus was identified on the basis of its morphological characteristics and nucleotide sequence on the internal transcribed spacer region of the ribosomal RNA gene. This is the fifth case report of filamentous basidiomycetes infecting a patient with CGD; all of these cases have been caused by Phellinus species. We highlight the importance of recognizing filamentous basidiomycetes Phellinus species as possible agents of non-Aspergillus fungal infections in patients with CGD.
