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

Tuberculous psoas abscess is a rare entity and is mostly associated with tuberculosis of the spine in view of the close vicinity. It is mostly secondary to direct extension from adjacent structures. Here we present a case of a young man who presented to us with a persistent swelling in the right side of the back and with a history of taking anti-tubercular drugs for six months. He was finally diagnosed with a recurrent right-sided loculated pleural effusion with a right-sided psoas abscess. Surgical drainage of the psoas abscess was done and he was again started on anti-tubercular therapy (ATT).
