Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia With Disseminated Multiple Foci and Pyomyositis in an Immunocompetent Patient: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Pyomyositis is an uncommon primary infection of skeletal muscle resulting in muscle inflammation followed by pus formation. Pyomyositis is typically caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), and most cases are associated with skin penetration and/or immunosuppressive conditions in tropical or even temperate climates. We report a previously healthy, immunocompetent 44-year-old man who presented with fever and right lower back pain. He had received an analgesic injection for his back pain 12 days prior to this visit. His clinical course was further complicated by the coexistence of multiple muscular abscesses, renal infarction, and septic arthritis of the right shoulder. He underwent computed tomography-guided drainage of the abscess. The abscess and blood cultures were positive for methicillin-susceptible
