Tuberculosis Aortitis and Mycotic Pseudo-aneurysm of the Infra-renal Aorta after Intravesicular BCG Therapy.
Article in The Ulster medical journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
We report a patient who presented with a rapidly expanding symptomatic tuberculous aortitis and mycotic pseudo-aneurysm of the infra-renal aorta, after intra-vesical BCG chemotherapy for bladder cancer, treated by required emergency open aneurysm repair. His case highlights this rare complication of intravesical BCG treatment, haematological seeding causing tuberculous aortitis and mycotic pseudo-aneurysm formation of the infra-renal aorta. It also illustrates successful treatment with emergency open surgery, local debridement of mycotic pseudoaneurysm, in-situ surgical reconstruction using a custom bovine-wrap interposition graft to create a neo-aorta and multi-agent anti-tuberculous chemotherapy.
