Sporotrichoid Primary Cutaneous Nocardiosis: A Rare Case of Isolated Upper-Limb Involvement in a Housewife.
Article in Indian dermatology online journal. 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
Nocardiosis is a rare infection due to a ubiquitous, gram-positive, weakly acid-fast, filamentous, aerobic bacteria, that are usually responsible for opportunistic infection in immunocompromised patients. Less frequently, nocardiosis can affect immunocompetent patients, causing primary cutaneous infections. Here we present a case of a 45-year-old housewife with a 12-day history of red painful nodules arranged linearly on her right upper limb, without any apparent history of injuries or comorbidities, albeit with a hobby of gardening. The unusual yet characteristic presentation, microbiological findings, and excellent response to co-trimoxazole therapy were consistent with a diagnosis of sporotrichoid primary cutaneous nocardiosis. The uncommon lymphocutaneous presentation is often misdiagnosed. Therefore, keeping a high index of suspicion in such cases is important to improve the cure rate and prevent complications.
