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

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a skin infection caused by various species of the Leishmania parasite and is spread by the bite of an infected female sandfly. In southern Israel, CL caused by Leishmania major is endemic. Cutaneous leishmaniasis is considered a self-limiting disease, characterized by progressive, long-lasting nodulo-ulcerative skin lesions, which usually resolve in several months to years, and leads to scarring, cosmetic disfigurement, and future stigmatization. Although CL is a common disease among children, reports of CL in children younger than 1 year are rare. We present a case of extensive facial CL in an infant whose initial lesions appeared only 25 days after birth. The patient was treated with intravenous liposomal amphotericin B. Two months later, marked improvement was seen, with complete resolution of the inflammation and atrophic scar formation. To our knowledge, this is the earliest age of CL published to date.
