Tuberculous gumma: a forgotten entity in the UK.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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 24-year-old immunocompetent Pakistani man presented with multiple subcutaneous abscesses that had developed and persisted over 2 months. After surgical incision and drainage, Mycobacterium tuberculosis was isolated (MTB). Further investigation yielded positive sputum cultures confirming pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) too. The patient was started on standard quadruple therapy for disseminated haematogenous TB in the form of tuberculous gumma and pulmonary TB.
