Filarial Coinfection Is Associated With Higher Bacterial Burdens and Altered Plasma Cytokine and Chemokine Responses in Tuberculous Lymphadenitis.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Filarial infections are known to modulate cytokine responses in pulmonary tuberculosis by their propensity to induce Type 2 and regulatory cytokines. However, very little is known about the effect of filarial infections on extra-pulmonary forms of tuberculosis. Thus, we have examined the effect of filarial infections on the plasma levels of various families of (IL-1, IL-12, γC, and regulatory) cytokines and (CC and CXC) chemokines in tuberculous lymphadenitis coinfection. We also measured lymph node culture grades in order to assess the burden of
