Cutaneous nontuberculous mycobacterial infection after intra-articular corticosteroid injection in a patient with psoriatic dactylitis.

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
The incidence of skin nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections has been rising in recent years, paralleling the increase in invasive procedures and immunosuppression. We present a case involving a patient undergoing treatment with a tumor necrosis factor blocker (Etanercept®) for psoriatic dactylitis, who showed clinical deterioration 30 days following intra-articular corticosteroid therapy. Liquid culture media identified M. abscessus, prompting the initiation of combination antibiotic therapy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an NTM superinfection in dactylitis, underscoring the importance of screening for these infections in immunosuppressed patients receiving localized injectable treatments.
