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 11-year-old girl with a congenitally malformed left hand, sickle cell trait, asthma, and history of appendicitis was transferred from Zambia for evaluation and treatment of widespread suppurative and ulcerative skin lesions that typically appeared after trauma to her skin. The ulcers first presented 3 years earlier but had markedly worsened in the 9 months before transfer, spreading circumferentially on her extremities and abdomen at the site of an appendectomy. They were painful and did not resolve with multiple courses of intravenous antibiotics and close management by a pediatric infectious disease specialist working for a nongovernmental organization (NGO) in her home country. Per NGO records, she had previously been  average weight-for-age. On presentation after international transfer, she was severely malnourished, with lesions covering ∼35% of her body. In initial workup, leukocytosis of 21 × 10
