An Uncommon Presentation of a Common Disease: Hoarseness of Voice in a Young Patient With Tuberculosis.

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
Pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis impose a major load of chronic disease burden. Lymph node and pleural tuberculosis are the most common types of extrapulmonary tuberculosis.

A contrast-enhanced CT of the neck and chest revealed bilateral cervical and mediastinal lymphadenopathy encroaching on the aortopulmonary window. A 70-degree rigid endoscopy revealed left vocal cord paralysis. A cervical lymph node excision biopsy showed necrotizing granulomatous inflammation and Langhan-type giant cells. The diagnosis was confirmed by culture on Löwenstein-Jensen medium and drug susceptibility testing, which identified
