Risk factors of non-tuberculous mycobacterial lymphadenitis in children: a case-control study.
Article in European journal of pediatrics, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The aim of the present study is to clarify the association between environmental exposures and non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lymphadenitis, during the last decade, in a population of children. In children up to 14 years of age in a pediatric tertiary hospital, all cases of NTM lymphadenopathy with a specific microbiological diagnosis, from January 2004 to January 2015, were reviewed. This is a case-control study (1:5 proportion), in which the prevalence of environmental factors between cases and controls was compared by means of a multivariate logistic regression analysis. A total of 24 cases were diagnosed in the aforementioned period, and 18 of them included in the case-control study. Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare was the predominant mycobacterium species isolated (83.3%). Exposure to hens showed a clear trend to be significantly associated with the disease (OR = 4.33; IC95% 0.97-19.41, p = 0.055), with no significant differences for the rest of the risk factors studied.
conclusionM. avium is still the predominant bacteria causing NTM lymphadenitis in children of our region. Contact with hens has been the only risk factor for NTM lymphadenitis detected in the present study. What is Known: • M. avium is the predominant bacteria causing NTM lymphadenitis in children of our region. • There is no consensus on which environmental factors are associated with NTM lymphadenitis in children. What is New: • The only risk factor for NTM lymphadenitis found in the present study was regular contact with hens. Contact with other farm animals was not associated to NTM lymphadenitis.
