Successful surgical treatment of bronchopleural fistula caused by severe pulmonary tuberculosis: A case report and review of literature.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2023. 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
backgroundBronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a relatively rare, but severe complication of pulmonary tuberculosis. It is associated with significant mortality; however, its management remains a major therapeutic challenge. CASE SUMMARY: We present a 24-year-old man with BPF resulting from severe pulmonary tuberculosis combined with mixed infections. The damaged right upper lobe and concomitant empyema were demonstrated
conclusionThe disease course of tuberculous BPF is particularly challenging. Surgical intervention serves as an effective and safe therapeutic strategy for BPF.
