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
Background and Objectives: Diagnosis and treatment of CNS nocardiosis is challenging and often delayed, which increases morbidity and mortality. The primary objective was to compare the clinical and radiographic characteristics of patients with CNS nocardiosis with non- Methods: We performed a case-control study of patients with brain abscesses diagnosed between 1998 and 2018 at a tertiary academic center. We identified 56 patients with brain MRI demonstrating brain abscess from the institutional imaging database: 14 with culture-confirmed nocardiosis and 42 randomly selected prevalent controls with culture-confirmed non- Results: Compared with patients with non- Discussion: Patients with CNS nocardiosis were more likely to be older, have a history of diabetes or immunosuppression, or have a concomitant lung infection compared with those with non-
