Cerebellar Ataxia Caused by Central Nervous System Tuberculosis With Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Central nervous system (CNS) tuberculosis (TB) remains a serious disease with high morbidity and mortality but is often difficult to diagnose owing to less sensitive microbiological techniques. Herein, we present a case where the main complaint was staggering gait; however, the patient was diagnosed with CNS TB associated with pulmonary TB. A woman in her 70s was admitted to our hospital with a two-month history of progressive ataxia. Cerebrospinal fluid examination showed an elevated lymphocyte count; however, cranial imaging studies did not show significant findings. However, we performed positron emission tomography-computed tomography imaging owing to suspicions of paraneoplastic syndrome, which showed substantial
