Case Report: Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Misdiagnosed as Pyoderma Gangrenosum.
Article in The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
With an estimated prevalence of 0.7%, pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is the most frequent type of reactive skin lesions seen in the setting of inflammatory bowel disease, together with metastatic Crohn's disease. However, in the case of persistent cutaneous ulcerations in patients with Crohn's disease under biologic and/or immunosuppressive therapy, infectious or malignant etiologies should be excluded. We report a case of multiple difficult-to-treat skin ulcerations due to Leishmania in a patient with Crohn's disease treated with antitumor necrosis factor-alpha drugs, misinterpreted for a long time as PG.
