Clinical Features of Mycetoma and the Appropriate Treatment Options.
Review in Research and reports in tropical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 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
Mycetoma is a chronic, suppurative and debilitating granulomatous infection seen mainly in tropical and subtropical areas and is now declared as a neglected tropical disease by the World Health Organization. The clinical diagnosis is usually characterized by a classical triad of localized swelling, underlying sinus tracts, and production of grains or granules, but unusual presentations are also seen. It is classified into eumycetoma caused by the fungus, and actinomycetoma caused by the bacteria. The clinical presentation of both is almost similar and a definite diagnosis is essential before starting the treatment as it differs for both. Surgical debulking followed by a prolonged course of medical therapy now forms the mainstay of treatment due to the long course of the disease and suboptimal response. This review focuses on the various usual as well as unusual clinical presentations of mycetoma, established treatment regimens as well as recent changes in the mode of administration of drugs and newer drugs for mycetoma.
