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 involvement of the spine (tuberculosis [TB] spine) can cause severe morbidity unless detected and treated early. Apart from the constitutional symptoms, it can present with back pain, kyphosis, gait abnormality, and paraplegia secondary to the bone or spinal cord involvement. There had been instances of TB spine presenting directly as abdominal pain due to psoas abscesses. Herein, we report a very rare clinical manifestation of TB spine as
