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

American tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL) affects the skin and mucous membranes, with a spectrum shaped by Th1/Th2 responses. This study investigated inflammasome activation in correlation with macrophage subpopulations, tissue parasitism, and histological changes in cutaneous and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis. We assessed inflammasome activation, tissue parasitism, and macrophage populations by immunohistochemistry, correlating with histopathological alterations using 29 biopsies from cutaneous and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis. Cutaneous leishmaniasis showed higher parasite density and infected macrophages than mucocutaneous leishmaniasis skin and mucosal lesions (p < 0.05). CD68
