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
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains the leading cause of death caused by a single infectious agent. Objective: We report a case of miliary TB in a 2-year-old child who presented with a history of constipation, weight loss, marked abdominal distension with hepatosplenomegaly. Case presentation: In children, TB often presents with a wide range of non-specific clinical and radiological manifestations, making diagnosis challenging, particularly in regions with low prevalence. We report the case of a two-year-old female with a history of constipation, weight loss, marked abdominal distension with hepatosplenomegaly, who was later diagnosed with miliary tuberculosis. Conclusion: This case highlights an unusual presentation of miliary TB in a very young child, a demographic in which it is infrequently observed. Miliary TB remains a severe and potentially fatal condition, particularly when diagnosis and treatment are delayed. The diagnosis is usually made based on the clinical presentation, supported by a classic miliary pattern on chest X-ray.
