Infection of tendon sheaths, joints, bursae, soft tissue, and tendon rapture by brucella: A case report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Key Clinical Message: Arthritis is one of the main presentations of chronic brucellosis, but bursitis and tendon rupture are also caused by brucellosis. Therefore, brucellosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of arthritis, bursitis, and tendon rupture by physicians. In addition, early diagnosis and treatment are very important in the prevention of disability. Abstract: Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease common in the Middle East. Manifestations of acute disease are fever, sweating, myalgia, and arthralgia. However, bone joint involvement occurs in 10%-85% of patients, and sacroiliac involvement occurs in up to 80% and vertebral joint involvement in up to 54%. A 57-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital of Islamic Azad University on February 26, 2021, with a history of one-month pain and limited movement of the right shoulder joint with fever for surgery of the shoulder ligament. The standard agglutination titer (Wright) for brucellosis at first was 1/640 and then increased. MRI of the shoulder showed a supraspinatus tendon and anterosuperior labral of the glenoid labrum tear. Although the patient was a candidate for shoulder joint ligament surgery, with a diagnosis of brucellosis, the treatment of brucellosis was prescribed, symptoms disappeared with anti-brucellosis antibiotic therapy without surgery, and the patient recovered. Supraspinatus tendon and antero superior labral of glenoid labrum tear of the shoulder joint in brucellosis is generally very rare. Failure or delay in the treatment of brucellosis can cause ligament rupture or joint disability. Sometimes, there are no symptoms except osteoarticular manifestations in brucellosis; therefore, brucellosis should be one of the differential diagnoses in osteoarticular diseases.
