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 60-year-old immunocompetent patient presented with painless subcutaneous nodules on the right hand and forearm that progressed over several weeks. Nodules were clinically classified as a soft tissue tumor of primarily mesenchymal origin. After extirpation of two nodules for diagnostic clarification, histology showed a chronic granulomatous inflammation of the dermis and subcutis with central eosinophilic necrosis including cell debris. Light microscopy showed no acid-fast rods, but molecular diagnostics revealed DNA of Mycobacterium haemophilum as a nontuberculoid mycobacterium (NTM). The infection was identified as the cause of the nodules based on the classic histomorphology of necrotizing-granulomatous inflammation in addition to PCR-based pathogen diagnostics. This case illustrates the clinical presence of mycobacterial infections, especially in extrapulmonary and extranodal localizations. In addition to cutaneous foci of infection, NTM infections may cause multisystem disease involving the joint system, depending on the host's immunocompetence, which can be treated with antibiotics.
