Klebsiella pneumoniae-induced multiple invasive abscesses: A case report and literature review.
Review in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
rationaleKlebsiella pneumoniae infection can induce multiple invasive abscesses, and the invasive infection is severe and life-threatening. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 69-year-old previously healthy Chinese male presented with fever, chill, backache, and ocular pain. DIAGNOSIS: The blood culture results indicated Klebsiella pneumoniae of the K1 serotype. Multiple invasive abscesses in liver, lung, eye, soft tissue, and central nervous system were identified by imaging examination. Subsequently, the patient experienced right ocular pain accompanied by visual disturbance. Tyndall sign was strongly positive, and lens opacity was observed by the ophthalmologist.
interventionsFull-dose and long-term treatment with meropenem was performed. Intraventricular injection of glass and anterior chamber puncture with antibiotics were performed twice. The patient also underwent an evacuation of the brain abscess. OUTCOMES: The patient's headache and lumbar backache were relieved, his ophthalmodynia disappeared, and his vision recovered after nearly 3 months of treatment. LESSONS: Imaging examination is very important for severe Klebsiella pneumoniae infection. The choice of antibiotics is complex, and the antimicrobial regimen should be adjusted according to the assessment of illness and the therapeutic effect. Surgical intervention must be considered for patients with multiple invasive abscesses.
