Ultrasound-Guided (USG) Aspiration From Sacroiliac Joint in Tuberculosis Is Rare: An Atypical Case Report From a Developing Country.
Article in Cureus, 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
Tuberculosis (TB) in the musculoskeletal system is rare, though it is an emerging health concern in many developing countries. Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) TB is uncommon. This report highlights the use of ultrasound-guided (USG) aspiration to diagnose SIJ TB. We report a 23-year-old boy who presented with low back pain and localized tenderness over the SIJ. Initial imaging showed signs of inflammation. USG aspiration was performed successfully to obtain fluid for microbiological analysis, and laboratory investigations confirmed the presence of
