Case Report: Reiterating the importance of tissue biopsy in the diagnosis of tuberculosis: lessons from a case of pediatric pulmonary tuberculosis complicated by Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The clinical symptoms of tuberculosis infection in children are not typical and need to be distinguished from many diseases, and the tumor is one of them. We present a case of cervical lymphadenopathy in a child with positive purified protein derivative (PPD) and Interferon-Gamma Release Assay results, ultimately diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma via cervical lymph node biopsy. We learned some lessons from the case: First, Pathological biopsy remains the "gold standard" for diagnosing tuberculosis. Second, there are limitations of sampling in lump fine needle aspiration biopsy, surgical methods for lymph node are preferred to obtain larger tissues and improve tuberculosis detection sensitivity.
