Primary cutaneous Mycobacteria avium complex infection in a systemic lupus erythematosus patient: A case report and review.
Review in Medicine, 2025. 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
rationaleNontuberculous mycobacteria infection is becoming more and more common in clinical practice, while skin and soft tissue infection is an important part. The evaluation of the immune status of patients has certain reference value for diagnosis and treatment. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 48-year-old woman developed an erythematosus nodule with purulent discharge on the right hip for 4 months. She had a history of systemic lupus erythematosus for more than 20 years, in stable control with prednisone 10 mg/d, azathioprine 50 mg/12 h, and hydroxychloroquine 200 mg/12 h. There was no trauma prior to the lesion. DIAGNOSES: After excluding other sites involved, the patient was diagnosed as Mycobacterium avium primary cutaneous infection based on laboratory culture, biopsy, and sequencing techniques.
interventionsAfter surgical resection, a combination of oral azithromycin, rifampicin, and ethambutol hydrochloride was given. OUTCOMES: The lesion healed after 4 months with no relapse. LESSONS: Primary cutaneous nontuberculous mycobacteria infection should raise more attention in immunocompromised and even immunocompetent populations.
