Abdominal Tuberculosis Mimicking Ovarian Cancer: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in International medical case reports journal, 2022. 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
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease with high morbidity and mortality resulting from infection by Case Report: A 30-year-old woman admitted to the emergency department with chief complaint of fatigue and shortness of breath since 3 months ago. She had lost around 20 kg weight in the past 5 months. She was previously suspected with ovarian cancer because of the characteristic features of malignancy, high levels of CA-125, and positive PET scan. She was later diagnosed with abdominal TB. Subsequently, the patient was given anti-TB drugs, and the patient showed clinical improvement. Conclusion: In the case of an elevated CA-125, clinicians should consider extrapulmonary TB as a differential diagnosis of ovarian cancer, especially in countries with high burden of tuberculosis.
