Leclercia Adecarboxylata Causing Necrotizing Fasciitis in an Immunocompetent Athlete Injecting Illicit Testosterone Supplements.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Leclercia adecarboxylata (L. adecarboxylata) is an uncommon and often misdiagnosed cause of multiple infection types including skin and soft tissue, cholecystitis, and septicemia. It commonly afflicts immunocompromised hosts or individuals who experience trauma in aquatic environments. We present a case where this bacteria causes necrotizing fasciitis as a consequence of injecting street bought testosterone supplements. This patient was treated successfully with excisional debridement of the wound as well as a one week course of Linezolid and Bactrim.
