Primary Pyomyositis of the Adductor and Pectineus Muscle in Patients With Uncontrolled Diabetes: Report of Two Cases.

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
Muscle amyotrophy and infarction are known to be rare complications of patients with diabetes mellitus and poor glycemic control. However, primary pyomyositis, an especially rare infection of the primary muscles, is also a problem that cannot be ignored. Primary pyomyositis typically begins as a subacute condition and is probably due to transient bacteremia. Here, we report on two patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus and poor glycemic control who developed primary pyomyositis, which manifested as abscesses of the adductor and pectineus muscles. Both patients underwent surgical drainage, and one patient additionally underwent internal fixation while receiving a continuous local antibiotic perfusion. Both patients were well and without signs of recurrence at their final follow-up visit. Primary pyomyositis, in addition to muscle amyotrophy and infarction, should be included in the differential diagnosis of infections occurring in patients with painful lesions in the lower extremities and Type 2 diabetes mellitus with poorly controlled glycemia.
