Basal Ganglia Ischemic Stroke: The Unforeseen Progression of Tuberculosis Epididymo-Orchitis.
Article in Cureus, 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
Tuberculosis is an infectious disease with broad pulmonary and extrapulmonary clinical manifestations. Central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS-TB) is a complex extrapulmonary infection known for its diverse clinical features including meningitis, tuberculoma, and spinal arachnoiditis. Particularly, tuberculosis meningitis can further lead to complications such as ischemic stroke. This article presents a challenging case of a 35-year-old male patient initially diagnosed with epididymo-orchitis, followed by viral-like central nervous system symptoms, ultimately complicated by tuberculosis meningitis and basal ganglia ischemic stroke. This case presentation underscores the diagnostic complexities associated with CNS-TB and emphasizes on the critical need for heightened awareness of the wide-ranging clinical presentations that can potentially delay early disease recognition and management.
