Case report: A case of mycobacterium bovis, in a previously healthy 10-year-old girl in Lebanon.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2025. 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
Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (M. TB) and Mycobacterium Bovis (M. Bovis), constituents of the Mycobacterium Tuberculosis complex (MTBC), pose diagnostic challenges due to shared extrapulmonary manifestations. This case portrays a patient initially treated for a fungal infection after presenting with weight loss, anorexia, and positive fecal occult blood. Subsequent hospitalization for continuous fever, limb edema, and strawberry tongue led to a diagnosis of Kawasaki disease. Despite treatment, symptoms persisted, prompting further investigation culminating in a Crohn's disease diagnosis and subsequent treatment initiation. However, symptom resolution remained elusive, prompting an urgent laparotomy where TB was confirmed via biopsies, despite earlier negative TB tests. This case underscores the diagnostic intricacies between Intestinal TB and Crohn's disease, emphasizing the necessity for heightened TB suspicion despite initial negative tests. The clinical overlap mandates meticulous diagnostic evaluations to avoid delayed or missed diagnoses.
