Necrotizing fasciitis in a 5-week-old infant: An unusual presentation.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare and life-threatening soft-tissue infection characterized by rapidly spreading inflammation and subsequent necrosis of the fascial planes and surrounding tissue. These children should be managed promptly with broad-spectrum antibiotics and possible surgical debridement. Here, we present a 5-week-old female infant who presented with fever and ulcer on right lower jaw. She had a sudden onset of darkening of the right lower jaw, which progressed to reddish discoloration, and then an ulcer developed in the middle of this area of discoloration. She had a tender swelling extending from the right pre-auricular area to the right upper neck, crossing the right jaw and extending toward the right cheek and maxillary area. Swelling had areas of hyperpigmentation with an ulcer measuring 2 by 3 cm at the center of the lesion, oozing purulent fluid, and
