1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Chronic granulomatous inflammation is a global disease caused by infection, auto-immune disease, toxic, or idiopathic factors. Pathological finding shows formation of distinct granulomas composed of aggregates of epithelioid macrophages, with a peripheral cuff of lymphocyte and plasma cells. Chronic granulomatous inflammation can occur in many different areas of the body, including the skin. Here, we report a case of a 64 years old woman who developed subcutaneous chronic granulomatous inflammation in the upper thigh, caused by latent tuberculosis. We also review granulomatous lesion in various countries with different incidence rate of tuberculosis and vascular feature, evaluating its effect when clinicians encounter.
