Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 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
Diagnosing tuberculosis (TB) in children is challenging due to non-specific symptoms such as fever, cough, and weight loss, which mimic other paediatric illnesses. This case report highlights the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of paediatric TB, emphasizing the challenges and solutions in primary care settings. A 10-year-old girl from Haridwar, Uttarakhand, presented with vomiting, abdominal pain, and weight loss over two-month period. Initially diagnosed with gastritis, her condition did not improve. An abdominal ultrasound revealed enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes and bowel wall thickening. Severe cachexia and abnormal findings led to suspicion of abdominal TB by the Family Physician at AIIMS CRHA Raiwala, prompting a referral to the paediatrics. Pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB in children often remain misdiagnosed, complicating timely care. This case underscores the critical role of early diagnosis and coordinated efforts in primary care to initiate timely treatment and improve outcomes for paediatric TB.
