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

Background: Psoas abscess (PA) is a rare infectious disease, with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) serving as a significant risk factor. The combination of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and ultrasound offers innovative approaches for the rapid and precise treatment of PA. Case presentation: Case 1: A 77-year-old woman presented with lumbar pain was initially misdiagnosed with lumbar disc herniation based on CT scan. Subsequent CT scan and ultrasound-guided puncture confirmed a left lumbar PA. mNGS detected the presence of Conclusion: mNGS combined with ultrasound-guided puncture overcomes conventional culture limitations. This approach suggests clinical feasibility.
