1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Chromoblastomycosis is found worldwide with higher incidence in tropical and subtropical regions. Fonsecaea spp. is one of the major causative agents of this disease. First case of chromoblastomycosis due to Fonsecaea nubica in Northern China is reported in a 75-year-old Chinese male. We firstly summarized molecular identification methods of Fonsecaea spp. and all the strains of F. nubica reported in the literature. Sequencing of internal transcribed spacer alone and/or combined with actin (ACT1), partial cell division cycle (CDC42) and partial beta-tubulin (BT2) were most commonly used to identify species, while lactase (Lac), homogentisate (HmgA) and polyketide synthase (PKS1) were also used in some cases. Most strains were isolated from South America and Eastern China. Five clinical cases of chromoblastomycosis due to F. nubica from Asia and Europe were also reviewed. All the five patients were male, over 30 years old, and their lesions occurred after trauma.
