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

Cutaneous leishmaniasis is endemic in Minas Gerais, Brazil; however, data on the circulating species remain limited. This study identified Leishmania species in he skin samples of patients in Montes Claros using molecular methods. Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis was found in ten samples, and Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum in one, representing an unusual case of cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by L. infantum in an immunocompetent patient in the state. The patient, a 62-year-old woman presented with four atypical papular lesions on the arm, forearm, and back, with no systemic symptoms. These results highlighted the need for enhanced epidemiological surveillance.
