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

Mucosal leishmaniasis (ML) affects predominantly the nose and occurs usually weeks or months after the cure of the primary cutaneous lesion. The pathology of ML is characterized by an exaggerated inflammatory reaction with infiltration of lymphocytes, macrophages, and plasma cells. There is also a paucity of parasites and a strong delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction. Herein, we report a case of a young man who had a large ulcer in his left leg and complained of dysphagia. In nasofibrolaryngoscopy, there were nodular lesions in the oropharynx and rhinopharynx. The skin lesion biopsy showed a chronic inflammation with amastigotes inside macrophages, and DNA of
