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

Sporotrichosis is the most frequent subcutaneous mycosis in Latin America. Sporothrix brasiliensis is the most virulent species, responsible for the majority of human and animal cases in Brazil. Osteomyelitis was described as a potential comorbidity of S. brasiliensis infection; however, surgical amputation resulting from an extracutaneous form is a rare outcome. In such cases, immunodeficiency and alcoholism must be investigated. We present two unusual cases of surgical amputation as a severe morbidity resulting from osteomyelitis by S. brasiliensis in immunocompetent nonalcoholic patients.
