Infection mimicking skin condition: pyoderma gangrenosum.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The a priori risk of infection is high when a patient presents with an ulcerative skin condition and elevated inflammatory parameters. If the ulceration is progressive despite adequate antibiotic therapy and tissue cultures are negative, pyoderma gangrenosum should be considered as the diagnosis. This rare infection mimicking skin condition can develop and worsen due to surgery. In this paper, we report two cases that illustrate the importance of making this clinical diagnosis in a timely manner in order to avoid unnecessary surgical interventions and worsening of the clinical picture.
