Primary paraduodenal tuberculosis in its pseudotumoral form: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. 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
Abdominal tuberculosis presents with nonspecific clinical and radiological features, often leading to diagnostic and therapeutic delays. Retroperitoneal pseudo-tumoral tuberculosis is a rare radio-clinical entity, characterized by its atypical and confusing symptomatology. We present the case of a 48-year-old male patient with no significant medical history, who was admitted to our department with a right retroperitoneal tumor presented as right renal colic due to compression of the lumbar ureter. Initially misdiagnosed as a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) of the lower duodenal angle, the patient underwent duodenal wedge resection, right hemicolectomy, and resection of the right lumbar ureter. Pathological examination of the surgical specimen confirmed follicular tuberculosis. The patient was subsequently treated with antitubercular drugs for 6 months with a good follow-up. Retroperitoneal pseudo-tumoral tuberculosis exhibits a polymorphic and nonspecific clinical presentation in our setting, highlighting the importance of early endoscopic or image-guided biopsies to prevent unnecessary surgical interventions.
