Tuberculosis Presenting With Acute Myocarditis and Systolic Heart Failure.
Article in Cureus, 2021. 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
Tuberculosis presenting with myocarditis and severe systolic dysfunction is rarely reported. So far, only a few cases were reported from India. Our aim is to report this rare presentation of a common disease that we encountered at Narayana Multispecialty Hospital, Jaipur. A 34-year-old lady having disseminated tuberculosis involving lung, lymph node, and myocardium with severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction received medical treatment in our hospital. She had elevated cardiac biomarkers, severe left ventricular regional wall hypokinesis with an ejection fraction of 25-30%, bilateral upper and middle lobe ground-glass opacities, as well as mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathies on chest computed tomography scan and normal coronary angiogram. The patient was started with anti-tuberculosis therapy, a beta-blocker, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, and a corticosteroid and discharged after one week in a stable condition. The third month of follow up showed recovery and improvement in cardiac function.
