Disseminated tuberculosis with rare coccygeal involvement: a case report.
Article in Access microbiology, 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) is a preventable and usually curable disease but remains a major health problem worldwide, particularly in developing countries. TB of the lumbosacral junction is rare and occurs in only 1-2% of all cases of spinal TB. Moreover, isolated sacrococcygeal TB is extremely rare. We present a case of a 64-year-old patient with a history of diabetes who presented with chronic back pain and cough. Physical examinations revealed a perianal fistula and left elbow joint arthritis. The patient is diagnosed with disseminated TB with coccygeal involvement. Diagnosis was achieved non-invasively using Xpert MTB/RIF, confirming
