Granulomatous mastitis caused by Rickettsia species.
Article in Virchows Archiv : an international journal of pathology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Granulomatous mastitis is a rare inflammatory disease of varying etiology. Tuberculosis and cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis caused by Corynebacterium are the best-established infectious examples. Despite the increasing incidence of Rickettsia-related diseases worldwide, granulomatous inflammation of breast parenchyma caused by Rickettsia has not yet been reported. We present a unique case of bilateral granulomatous mastitis documented with mammography, magnetic resonance imaging and core-needle biopsy. The rickettsial etiology of the disease was proved with specific immunohistochemistry and confirmed with DNA extraction, PCR and serology. The lesions completely resolved after a full-course tetracycline treatment. This case report widens the knowledge about the possible clinical manifestations of Rickettsia infection and adds a new bacterium to the list of etiological factors causing granulomatous mastitis.
