Group A Streptococcus Necrotizing Lymphadenitis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Necrotizing lymphadenitis (NL) is a rare entity that can occur as a complication of bacterial cervical lymphadenitis (CL) and is characterized by unilateral or bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy. NL most commonly presents in females and most reports have been in Japan. In this case, we present a 37-year-old male with no significant past medical history who presented with an unusual presentation and clinical course of NL. Initial workup for Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) and other infectious etiology was negative. Yet, aspiration later revealed Group A Streptococcus. When the patient's pain and swelling did not subside with the initial antibiotic and supportive treatment, the patient underwent a repeat aspiration and biopsy that revealed a necrotic mass or lymph node. NL is uncommon and rarely due to infectious etiology. However, this marks a case in which a Group A Streptococcus was shown to be associated with subsequent necrotic lymph nodes and should allow practitioners to further consider an infectious etiology in the differential diagnosis of NL.
