Case report of pulmonary brucellosis complicated by pleural effusion.
Article in Respiratory medicine 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
Brucellosis is a bacterial disease and one of the most widespread zoonoses transmitted by an animal. It can affect any organ system, but pulmonary involvement is an unusual presentation according to the literature. We report the case of a 32 -year-old lady from Saudi Arabia who suffered from persistent fever and was found to have lobar pneumonia complicated by parapneumonic effusion. She started empirical antibiotics, and many investigations were done. In the end, after more detail about the patient's circumstances, the presumptive diagnosis of Brucella was made by high serology titer. She was effectively treated with doxycycline and rifampicin and completely recovered. In conclusion, pulmonary brucellosis is infrequent and challengeable in diagnosis but should be knowledge, especially in endemic areas of brucellosis.
