Anal tuberculosis presented as chronic perianal abscess in an immunocompetent adult: A rare case report.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 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
There are reported 7.5 million cases of extra pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) (EPTB) worldwide and 19% in the South-East Asia region. Anal TB represents an exceedingly uncommon extra pulmonary manifestation of TB), occurring in fewer than 1% of individuals who acquire TB. The occurrence of perianal illness is extremely rare, accounting for 1% of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, while GI TB makes up less than 1% of all TB cases. The most prevalent manifestation is the development of a fistula in the anus, while the presentation as a perianal abscess is uncommon. We present a case of isolated perianal TB with no associated GI or pulmonary dissemination in the immunocompetent.
