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

Diabetes mellitus is the most common endocrine metabolic disease. Uncontrolled diabetes affects almost all components of immunity. Diabetes mellitus patients have an increased susceptibility to infections which aggravates in the cases of uncontrolled hyperglycemia. Case presentation: The authors present the case of a 63-year-old female patient with a history of poorly controlled type 2 diabetes. She went to the ambulance complaining of fever, poor appetite, dyspnea, cough, fatigue, and asthenia. The chest computed tomography showed the presence of bilateral ovoid infiltration densities, mostly on the upper-right side. The initial diagnosis was community-acquired pneumonia in an immunocompromised host due to poorly controlled diabetes. A swelling was observed in the right cheek and around the right eye, along with ptosis of the right eyelid. The ophthalmologist indicated the presence of panophthalmitis of the entire right eye with optic neuritis and right orbital cellulitis. The bacterial culture of bronchoalveolar lavage showed Gram-negative bacteria known as Conclusion: In conclusion, the case highlights the importance of early detection of systematic infection manifestations in diabetic patients, regarding their age, history, and other comorbidities. Ocular symptoms are highly recommended to be evaluated in this context of
