A Rare Presentation of Tuberculosis-Related Septic Shock.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Septic shock with multi-organ dysfunction is an exceedingly rare, but known complication of untreated Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) infection. TB-associated cases of septic shock are predominantly reported in immunocompromised patients; however, it can manifest in a healthy individual if the infection is not treated. Through the interaction of lipoarabinomannan (LAM) on the mycobacterium cell wall with antigen-presenting cells, the bacteria may be able to survive in host cells for long periods of time. Without prompt treatment, TB may cause bronchiectasis and multi-organ failure. We report a case of a 24-year-old woman with untreated TB who developed widespread bronchiectasis and septic shock.
