Revisiting Diabetic Myonecrosis: A Case Report Highlighting Diagnostic and Management Challenges.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 41-year-old man with a history of uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus presented with acute thigh pain and fever. He had tense muscle compartments, skin discoloration, and erythema with elevated inflammatory markers on blood labs. Ultrasonography revealed grossly edematous muscles, and culture showed growth of streptococcal dygalactae. Biopsy revealed histiocytic infiltrates with interstitial edema of muscle fibers. The patient was treated with surgical exploration, fluids, and broad-spectrum antibiotics, which led to complete recovery. This case highlights the potential development of diabetic myonecrosis owing to suboptimal blood glucose control. As well it demonstrates the pathophysiology, presentations, and management approach of the disease.
