1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Iliopsoas primary tuberculous abscess is a rare clinical and imaging entity. Most reported imaging literature cases are secondary to tuberculous spondylodiscitis. Iliopsoas tuberculous inflammation and abscess constitutes a diagnostic challenge owing to its insidious onset and subtle non-specific symptoms. Here, in a case of right iliopsoas and thigh primary tuberculosis abscess complicated with right iliac bone osteomyelitis extended to the right hip joint. The conventional radiography, thigh and pelvic ultrasonography, MRI and CT examinations showed the whole right iliopsoas and thigh abscess compartments and right iliac bone osteomyelitis. No defined other pulmonary or abdominal tuberculous lesions. Percutaneous drainage of the thigh compartment under ultrasound guidance and microbiologic culture of the drained fluid elicited mycobacterium tuberculosis.
