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

Diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis (DCL) is a rare parasitic infection caused by the Leishmania species. Diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis commonly presents as non-ulcerating papules and nodules over the face, neck, and arms. A middle-aged female presented with multiple nodular lesions on her face, neck, and chest region. Histopathology of the lesions showed multiple amastigotes, confirming the diagnosis of DCL. She was successfully treated with a combination course of rifampicin and fluconazole. Here, we report the first case of DCL in north India, a non-endemic area for cutaneous leishmaniasis.
