1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Tubercular involvement of small bones is a rare clinical condition. Often, the disease is associated with pulmonary involvement. Isolated cases of spina ventosa in adults with no pulmonary seeding or any history of tuberculosis or trauma are relatively infrequent occurrences. We report a case of a 22-year-old immunocompetent Indian female who presented with complaints of a swollen right index finger. A detailed clinical workup supported by radiographs and serological tests established the diagnosis as primary tubercular dactylitis of the right index finger. She was managed with anti-tubercular drugs.
