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

When hypostatic pneumonia is present at the same time as COVID-19 pneumonia, the clinical course is almost always prolonged (prolonged-COVID-19) due to persistent inflammation, long-term anti-inflammatory syndrome, followed by immune exhaustion, i.e., by immunosuppression and catabolic syndrome. In the immunosuppression phase, viral reactivation can be accompanied by a secondary infection, which, in this case, is pulmonary tuberculosis. Pulmonary tuberculosis in post-COVID-19 patients and in patients with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy does not have a typical clinical course nor laboratory, radiological, immunological, microbiological, or fiberbronchoscopic pathohistological confirmation. Due to this, the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis was not carried out on time, postponed after the unsuccessful treatment of sepsis, post-COVID-19, and other accompanying viral (adenovirus, RSV) and bacterial (streptococcus viridans) infections. The treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis was possible only "ex juvantibus" (trial) post-COVID-19. It becomes imperative to search for a new, more precise and reliable diagnostic test for the detection of tuberculosis bacillus.
