A Case of Cutaneous Mycosis Caused by Scedosporium dehoogii on an Immunocompromised Patient.
Article in Mycopathologia, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This report describes a 77-year-old man with cutaneous mycosis caused by Scedosporium dehoogii while taking oral betamethasone and tacrolimus for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. At examination in our clinic, the patient had multiple cystic lesions and nodules with slight tenderness, varying in size up to 4 cm, on his left knee and shin. He had not noticed any traumatic injury at the site of the lesions. Fungal cultures of samples taken from the abscesses, scales, and crusts of the lesions yielded white, later grayish brown, fluffy surfaced colonies. Partial sequencing of the β-tubulin gene confirmed the species of the isolate. The patient was initially treated with oral voriconazole and local hyperthermia, but experienced hepatic injury 2 weeks later. His treatment was changed to itraconazole (ITC) and local hyperthermia, followed by a combination of ITC and terbinafine. The patient recovered completely during the 12-month course of treatment.
