A rare case of pulmonary nocardiosis comorbid with Sjogren's syndrome.
Article in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 2021. 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
backgroundNocardia is an opportunistic pathogen, which occurs in patients with autoimmune diseases and immune dysfunction, and can cause bacteremia and other life-threatening complications. The clinical manifestations of Nocardia pneumonia are similar to tuberculous and other clinical common bacterial pneumonia, but its antibacterial treatments are different and detection methods are unique, which may lead patients to suffer for many years due to clinical misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.
methodsImaging and laboratory examinations were performed for preliminary diagnosis, and next-generation sequencing was used to identify the exact species type of Nocardia in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of the patient.
resultsImaging and laboratory parameters preliminarily implied that the patient was infected with Nocardia with Sjogren's syndrome (SS), and NGS showed that the strain was N. terpenica.
conclusionsAccurate etiological diagnosis and corresponding antibiotics are key to improve the prognosis of pulmonary nocardiosis in this case. Nocardia pneumonia is rare in clinical practice; it is of great medical significance to improve the understanding of pulmonary nocardiosis.
