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

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), the most prevalent systemic mycosis in Brazil, is caused by dimorphic fungi of the genus Paracoccidioides and is acquired primarily through inhalation. PCM is associated with a high mortality, particularly among men living in rural areas. This case report describes a 47-year-old man with osteocutaneous involvement diagnosed by biopsy and direct fungal examination. The osseous form of PCM is rare and should be differentiated from other infections and neoplasms. Management involves prolonged antifungal therapy and follow-up for at least two years. This case highlights the diagnostic value of dermatological assessments in atypical presentations of PCM.
