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

A five-month-old infant presented with fever and cough for 3 weeks. She was diagnosed with multiple tuberculomas and cavitating pulmonary tuberculosis. She was a household contact of an open case of tuberculosis (TB) and developed severe disease, although she had received the Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine and had no primary or secondary immunodeficiency. In infants, due to low levels of cell mediated immunity, tuberculosis can be severe and dissemination of tuberculosis to the central nervous system (CNS) can occur very early without following the usual time frame. CNS TB may not have symptoms in the early stages in infants and may require neuroimaging for diagnosis. This is the youngest child that has been reported with multiple CNS tuberculomas.
