Fluorescence in situ hybridization microscopic detection of Bacilli Calmette Guérin mycobacteria in aortic lesions: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
rationaleTo improve the diagnosis of life-threatening Bacilli Calmette Guérin (BCG) arterial aneurysm in patients treated by intravesical instillation of BCG vaccine as adjunctive therapy for non-muscular bladder carcinoma, is a life-threatening condition. Its diagnosis remains cumbersome. PATIENT CONCERNS: One patient with a history of intravesical BCG installation presented with aortic aneurysm with routine microscopic examination after Ziehl-Neelsen staining remaining negative. DIAGNOSES: We used fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to target the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex rpob gene in a fresh aortic specimen. FISH yielded fluorescent mycobacteria in aortic lesions; mycobacteria were further confirmed as Mycobacterium bovis BCG mycobacteria by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) sequencing.
interventionsThe patient benefited from an antituberculous treatment combining rifampicin, isoniazid, and ethambunol. OUTCOME: A 9-month follow-up indicated a favorable outcome. LESSONS: This case report teaches that FISH targeting the M tuberculosis complex rpoB gene should be incorporated in the laboratory investigation of aortic aneurysm in patients with a history of bladder carcinoma.
