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

We report a case of eczema-like cutaneous mucormycosis caused by Rhizopus arrhizus. A 4-year-old child was presented to our hospital with a history of gradually enlarging papule and plaque in the periumbilical area for nearly 4 years since 2 weeks after his birth, and it has been misdiagnosed as eczema for nearly 3 years. Based on histopathology examination, the fungus culture test and DNA sequencing, it was revealed that R. arrhizus should be the responsible fungus for skin infection. The patient was successfully cured by combination of intravenous drip and percutaneous injection amphotericin B for nearly 3 months, and no recrudescence was seen during a follow-up of 6-month observation.
