Massive Hemoptysis in Pulmonary Tuberculosis From Rasmussen Pseudoaneurysm.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Massive hemoptysis due to pulmonary tuberculosis is a life-threatening complication; it occurs as a result of the erosion of one of the pulmonary vessels. Tuberculous vascular lesions can also lead to arteritis, thrombosis, arterial dilation and Rasmussen aneurysms. "Rasmussen aneurysm" is a rare cause of hemoptysis. The extent of hemoptysis varies in severity from mild to life threatening, which is more common. Here, we report a case of a 45-year-old Indian male who initially presented with cough, and generalized weakness; his clinical, laboratory, and radiological findings were highly suggestive of pulmonary tuberculosis. Following medical ward admission, two weeks later he had worsening of his respiratory status complicated by massive hemoptysis and dropped oxygen saturation requiring intubation and admission to the intensive care unit. His computed tomography angiography revealed localized aneurysmal dilatation of the pulmonary artery in the left lower lobe (Rasmussen aneurysm); embolization was performed successfully. Due to the poor respiratory reservoir in most pulmonary TB cases, interventional radiology is preferred over surgery.
