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
Case Summary: A 27 years old female presented to gynae OPD with foul smelling discharge per vaginum off and on for a year and was given treatment for PID (Pelvic inflammatory disease) and cervicitis. Pap smear was taken and was reported unsatisfactory due to inflammation. Colposcopy was planned later due to her bothersome complaints and suspicious looking cervix. A white worm popped out of cervix while doing colposcopy which turned out to be Trichuris trichiura. Deworming was done for the patient and her family members. Patient reported again with similar complaints and this time colposcopy and guided biopsy was done that showed Tubercular Granulomatous cervicitis hence, she was put on category I ATT (Anti-tubercular treatment) that relieved her symptoms and improved cervical findings. Conclusion: People living in tropical and subtropical areas are at highest risk of infection by T. trichiura. This is the first case of T. trichiura in ectopic location and first case of a live worm found in female genital tract. Previous studies have shown that helminthic infection can reactivate latent TB and aggravate the disease expression.
