Organizing pneumonia secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 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
backgroundOrganizing pneumonia secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis is rare. Moreover, the temporal boundary between pulmonary tuberculosis and secondary organizing pneumonia has not been defined. We report a case of secondary organizing pneumonia associated with pulmonary tuberculosis occurring after nine months of antituberculosis treatment. CASE SUMMARY: A 54 years old man, previously diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis and tuberculous pleurisy, underwent nine months of antituberculosis treatment. Follow-up lung computed tomography revealed multiple new subpleural ground-glass opacities in both lungs, and a lung biopsy confirmed organizing pneumonia. Treatment continued with anti-tuberculosis agents and hormone therapy, and subsequent dynamic pulmonary computed tomography exams demonstrated improvement in lesion absorption. No disease recurrence was observed after corticosteroid therapy discontinuation.
conclusionWhen treating patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis, if an increase in lesions is observed during anti-tuberculosis treatment, it is necessary to consider the possibility of tuberculosis-related secondary organizing pneumonia, timely lung biopsy is essential for early intervention.
