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

A nocardial abscess is a relatively rare opportunistic infection that typically occurs after immunosuppressive treatment and is a clinical challenge. In the present study, the case of a 69-year-old patient with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis, and lung and kidney involvement, was reported. The patient received systemic glucocorticoid and cyclophosphamide treatment for 6 months, after which a large encapsulated abscess appeared on magnetic resonance imaging and CT in the subcutaneous tissue of the left hip and lung, respectively, and the pus culture showed
