Complex trauma sequelae: Mycobacterium goodii and Priestia endophytica Hardware infection in a patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.
Article in BMC infectious diseases, 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
A 26-year-old man with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, recurrent otitis externa, and chronic otitis media sustained a left lower extremity amputation and open femur fracture with internal hardware fixation after a motor vehicle collision in Arizona. He presented to the emergency department at our institution with severe left leg pain and purulent discharge despite receiving two unidentified antibiotics upon discharge. Evaluations revealed an abscess and malunion of the femur. Initial cultures yielded scant Priestia endophytica, leading to daptomycin treatment. His condition worsened until Gram-positive bacilli identified as Mycobacterium goodii, a rare nosocomial mycobacterial species, were found. Significant improvement occurred with appropriate antibiotics. This case highlights the challenges in diagnosing and managing M. goodii infections in immunocompromised patients with orthopedic complications and notes P. endophytica as a previously unreported, possibly opportunistic human pathogen.
