Clinical Diagnosis and Management of Mucosal Leishmaniasis in the Context of a Global Pandemic: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Mucosal leishmaniasis (ML) is a rare metastatic complication of Leishmania infection. It has a high potential for destructive and disfiguring complications, namely destruction of nasal architecture and airway compromise. ML is difficult to treat for a variety of reasons, including variable antimicrobial resistance rates between species, as well as between endemic areas geographically. There are several treatment options available, which are discussed here. In the majority of cases, a nuanced approach to treatment is required based on speciation and geography. Importantly, the treatment of ML requires a multi-disciplinary approach. We present a patient with a history of cutaneous leishmaniasis who presented with signs and symptoms concerning ML, but due to the COVID-19 global pandemic diagnostic testing was not possible, was treated empirically under clinical suspicion of ML with good results.
