Phaeoacremonium parasiticum phaeohyphomycosis in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus treated successfully with surgical debridement and voriconazole: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in IDCases, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 26-year old woman presented for evaluation of extensive edema, erythema, sinus tract formation and purulent drainage from the left lower extremity after trauma from a wooden object approximately three months prior. Skin biopsies and blood cultures revealed Phaeoacremonium parasiticum consistent with a diagnosis of phaeohyphomycosis. Despite hospitalization and initial treatment with several antifungals, including voriconazole, her infection progressed. Surgical debridement with split thickness skin grafting was performed. Subsequent clinical improvement allowed a transition from intravenous to oral voriconazole and discharge home. Seven months post presentation she remained on oral voriconazole with significant improvement and no clinical evidence of recurrence. This case illustrates an approach to management where aggressive debridement with split-thickness skin grafting and a prolonged course of intravenous and oral antifungals resulted in a good long-term outcome for the patient.
