1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Sporotrichosis has multiple clinical manifestations, and its cutaneous-disseminated form is uncommon and, in most cases, related to immunosuppressive conditions. We report the case of a 47-year-old male patient who presented with multiple cutaneous nodules and ulcers on the left upper limb and the right thigh, with no other comorbidities. Until the diagnosis was confirmed, the patient was initially given empiric antifungal treatment with itraconazole, which showed unsatisfactory results at a local hospital. Then, he was treated with voriconazole, which led to the slow improvement of his skin lesions. At one point during the voriconazole treatment course, the patient briefly self-discontinued voriconazole for economic reasons, and the lesions recurred and worsened. The patient was finally diagnosed with cutaneous-disseminated sporotrichosis based on the isolation and identification of
