Pulmonary infection caused by Nocardia cyriacigeorgica in a patient with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 9 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
rationaleNocardia species is known as conditional pathogenic bacteria. Among Nocardia species, pulmonary infection caused by Nocardia cyriacigeorgica associated with Aspergillus fumigatus complex lung disease is rarely reported. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 55-year-old female with a history of productive cough with recurrent expectoration for 20 years presented with increasing cough for 12 months. The patient presented complaining of respiratory symptoms including increasing cough with yellow phlegm, poor appetite, and generalized fatigue for a week prior to admission. DIAGNOSES: Nocardia cyriacigeorgica pneumonia was identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
interventionsCombined treatments (trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and meropenem) were administered after identification of N cyriacigeorgica. OUTCOMES: The respiratory symptoms of the patient had improved both clinically and radiologically after 4 weeks of antibacterial therapy. LESSONS: Early precise diagnosis and prompt combined therapy are of vital importance in severe Nocardia pulmonary infection.
