Disseminated Tuberculosis Involving Lung, Peritoneum, and Endometrium in an Immunocompetent 17-Year-Old Patient.
Article in Cureus, 2020. 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 17-year-old Guatemalan female with a recent history of spontaneous abortion requiring dilation and curettage at 16 weeks' gestation presented two weeks post-procedure to a pediatric hospital for three days of worsening generalized abdominal pain, diarrhea, fevers, and cough. The patient's vital signs showed hypoxia, tachypnea, tachycardia, and hypotension; she was alert and oriented with a thin body habitus and suprapubic abdominal tenderness without rebound, guarding, or hepatosplenomegaly. She had no crackles, rales, or wheezing on lung examination. Labs revealed neutrophilic leukocytosis, acute kidney injury, transaminitis, and coagulopathy. Pelvic ultrasound demonstrated a septated pelvic fluid collection with an endometrial thickening. CT abdomen and pelvis showed significant nodular omental thickening and ascites. CT angiogram of the chest demonstrated an apical lung cavity and bilateral micro-nodularity without lymphadenopathy. Due to concern for septic shock secondary to endometritis, the patient was started on broad-spectrum antibiotics and intubated for acute hypoxic respiratory failure. Repeat dilation and evacuation revealed degenerative first trimester products of conception and necrotizing granulomatous endometritis with
