Colonoscopy Findings of Uncomplicated Enteric Fever Mimicking Koch's Disease.
Article in Euroasian journal of hepato-gastroenterology. 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
Enteric fever is a common occurrence in Southeast Asia with a myriad of presentations. Partial treatment often leads to prolonged illness. Along with this, bowel imaging often confounds the picture with tuberculosis. Colonoscopy and biopsy may help to differentiate from tuberculosis. The data on colonoscopy is scarce in enteric fever and is mostly available from case reports of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. We have described three cases of enteric fever with GI involvement mimicking tuberculosis. The colonoscopy picture is characteristic of pinkish-bluish ileal mucosa, with edema and decreased distensibility, along with multiple superficial ulcers. The ileocecal valve was involved in all three cases. The ascending colon was involved in two cases. There was complete resolution of lesions after treatment on follow-up.
