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

An autochthonous case of paracoccidioidomycosis was reported in a city of north Iran. This condition is a well-known endemic fungal infection highly prevalent in Latin American countries, with an incidence of 1 to 3.7 cases per 100.000 annually in Brazil. The classical features are cutaneous lesions, lymph node, and pulmonary involvements, while typical oral changes are superficial ulcers with hemorrhage and moriform aspect. Herein is reported an adult male patient with characteristic oral and pulmonary lesions. Rural environment, male gender, cigarette smoking, and alcohol abuse were risk factors; and clinical history, imaging studies, and histopathologic data established the diagnosis. The patient improved well by administration of sulfamethoxazole plus trimethoprim. The aim of this case study is to enhance the awareness of generalists about this mycosis.
