Overview of Cutaneous Mycobacterial Infections.
Article in Current tropical medicine reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
purpose of reviewMycobacterial infections may affect any human organ and produce disseminated disease in immunocompromised individuals. Their most common clinical presentations include pulmonary, cutaneous (skin and soft tissues), and disseminated forms. The skin and soft tissues are frequent targets of affection by mycobacterial pathogens manifesting as localized or diffuse disease. RECENT
findingsOverall, infections due to SUMMARY: Geography and environmental exposure play an important role in the epidemiology of cutaneous mycobacterial infections. Mycobacterial infection of the skin and subcutaneous tissue is an important cause of human suffering in terms of morbidity, deformity, dysfunction, and stigma. The diagnosis of cutaneous mycobacterial infections is challenging requiring a low threshold of clinical suspicion for obtaining skin biopsies of cutaneous lesions for acid-fast staining and cultures, and molecular probe assays to detect the presence of mycobacterial pathogens. The choice of antibacterial therapy combinations and length of therapy for cutaneous mycobacterial infections is species-specific.
