Rasmussen's Aneurysm in Active Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Hemoptysis is a common presenting symptom of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). Rasmussen aneurysm can present with severe hemoptysis, which is usually diagnosed using computed tomography (CT) angiography. A false aneurysmal dilatation of the pulmonary artery is known as a Rasmussen aneurysm. It occurs due to a gradual weakening of the arterial wall adjacent to pulmonary cavitation. Computed tomography angiography of the chest is the standard diagnostic technique for Rasmussen aneurysm. An early angiographic or surgical procedure with vascular embolization is recommended following a definitive diagnosis. We present a 29-year-old woman whom the medical commission referred due to a cavitary lesion on a screening chest X-ray. Hospital admission was preferred for the
