Disseminated tuberculosis associated with autoimmune haemolytic anaemia and adrenal deficiency: a rare association.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 one of the greatest masqueraders in medical practice and can have manifestations involving any organ or organ systems of the body. The presentation of disseminated TB can range from typical features like fever, weight loss and fatigue to protean manifestations. We share the case of an elderly man who presented to us with weight loss, anaemia, weakness and lymphadenopathy involving thoracic and intraabdominal locations. Work up of anaemia revealed features of Coombs-positive autoimmune haemolytic anaemia (AIHA) and evaluation of weakness showed laboratory results consistent with adrenal insufficiency. Biopsy of the abdominal lymphnode yielded caseating granulomas with CB-NAAT positivity for
