Pulmonary miliary sarcoidosis masquerading the reactivation of tuberculosis 30 years later.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. 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
Key Clinical Message: Sarcoidosis may occur after treatment with pulmonary tuberculosis and requires differential diagnosis from tuberculosis reactivation. Miliary sarcoidosis should be promptly differentiated from miliary tuberculosis associated with high mortality. Abstract: Clinical, histological, and radiological similarities between sarcoidosis and tuberculosis render differential diagnosis challenging. The association between these two diseases has long been discussed, although the coexistence or subsequent occurrence of tuberculosis and sarcoidosis is rare. We report a case of miliary sarcoidosis that developed 30 years after tuberculous pleurisy treatment. Sarcoidosis may occur after treatment with pulmonary tuberculosis and requires differential diagnosis from tuberculosis reactivation. Although miliary sarcoidosis is uncommon, it should be promptly differentiated from miliary tuberculosis associated with high mortality. This study reignites the debate on the causal association between tuberculosis and sarcoidosis.
