An Unfortunate Case of Reactivation of Tuberculosis in a Postpartum Female.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Tuberculosis (TB) is a widely prevalent disease, especially in resource-limited settings. It poses a big burden to the community and is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in pregnant females due to their immunosuppressed state. During pregnancy, the immune system is suppressed to prevent fetal rejection, and it gets reconstituted postpartum. During this reconstitution phase, reactivation of TB may occur, making it quintessential to test peripartum females for latent TB, especially those belonging to endemic regions. We describe an unfortunate case of reactivation of TB in a postpartum female from Central America.
