Severe Calcific Constrictive Pericarditis From Remotely Treated Tuberculosis.
Article in JACC. 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
backgroundConstrictive pericarditis from tuberculosis is a rare but serious consequence of a tuberculosis infection, especially in nonendemic areas. CASE SUMMARY: A 40-year-old man with a history of tuberculosis as a child that was treated with antituberculosis medications presented with heart failure. He was found to have severe calcific constrictive pericarditis from his remote tuberculosis infection, leading to biventricular failure and volume overload. The patient was optimized with guideline-directed medical therapy and intravenous diuresis, and he successfully underwent pericardiectomy with marked improvement in symptoms and quality of life. DISCUSSION: We present a rare case of severe calcific constrictive pericarditis that manifested clinically decades after the initial tuberculosis infection. Multimodality imaging, which includes echocardiography, cardiac computed tomography, and cardiac magnetic resonance, is valuable for diagnosing and guiding treatment for constrictive pericarditis.
