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
Necrotizing sarcoid granulomatosis (NSG) is a rare disease characterized by granulomatous and necrotic features as well as vasculitis, and it primarily affects the lungs, with occasional extrapulmonary manifestations. The first documented case was in Jakarta, Indonesia. A 71-year-old male presented with prolonged fever, a neck mass, and multiple mediastinal lymphadenopathy. The disease was initially suspected as lung tuberculosis, but a surgical biopsy of the left thyroid lobe confirmed the NSG pattern. Treatment with oral prednisolone led to positive outcomes, as evidenced by radiological improvement at the 3-month follow-up. This case report aims to emphasize the challenges and the importance of clinician awareness in diagnosing NSG.
