A Study of Community-Acquired Pyodermas with Special Reference to Panton-Valentine Leukocidin (PVL)-Positive Methicillin-Resistant
Article in Indian dermatology online journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Community-acquired (CA) pyodermas are one of the most common infections encountered in the dermatology outpatient clinics. A significant number of these conditions are caused by Materials and Methods: A prospective study was conducted with 205 cases of CA pyodermas, of which five were discarded due to mixed isolates. Clinical details were taken and wound exudate was sent for bacteriological examination. Further, the molecular study was performed on all MRSA (7) isolates and 13 randomly selected MSSA isolates using polymerase chain reaction for Results: Conclusion: While pyodermas are common, the prevalence of MRSA is low in the CA pyodermas in our region. PVL does not appear to be a virulence factor among the isolated MRSA. Larger, multicentric, and periodic studies are, however, required to further justify these claims.
