1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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) remains one of the world's leading causes of morbidity and mortality. It occurs in both pulmonary and extra-pulmonary forms. Primary iliac bone TB remains a rare clinical entity, even in endemic areas. The diagnosis of the disease can be challenging due to its similarity to other bone diseases. We report a rare case of primary iliac bone TB in a 63-year-old patient who was on peritoneal dialysis and had a medical history of hypertension and type II diabetes, which was complicated by diabetic retinopathy and diabetic kidney disease. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed osteomyelitis in the iliac bone, while real-time polymerase chain reaction using the GeneXpert
