An Atypical Case of Infectious Myositis in a Young Woman on Immunosuppressive Therapy.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Infectious myositis is a rare but serious condition typically caused by bacterial pathogens. In immunocompromised patients, including those on long-term immunosuppressive therapy, clinical signs of myositis can be subtle or delayed. We present the case of a 21-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) on immunosuppressive therapy who presented with pain, fever, tachycardia, and swelling of the right lower leg. Initial evaluation revealed no skin defects or rash and normal creatine phosphokinase (CPK) levels. A non-contrast computed tomography (CT) scan of her leg showed some soft tissue changes, but it was only after a week of worsening symptoms that contrast-enhanced CT imaging revealed a multiloculated, large abscess, measuring 23.7 cm in length, in the anterior compartment of the leg. The abscess was drained surgically, and intraoperative cultures grew methicillin-resistant
