Pulmonary tuberculosis complicated with bronchial lipoma: a case report and literature review.
Review in BMC pulmonary medicine, 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
This case report presents a rare instance of intrabronchial lipoma in a patient with active pulmonary tuberculosis. A tumor located in the right lower bronchus was unexpectedly discovered during a bronchoscopy. Following a biopsy, the histopathological analysis confirmed it to be a lipoma. After six months of regular anti-tuberculosis treatment, most of the patient's tuberculosis lesions were absorbed. The lipoma in the right lower bronchus was completely removed using bronchoscopic High-frequency electric snare. After 339 days, a follow-up bronchoscopy revealed that only a few white scars remained in the wall of the right lower bronchus. The size of the lumen was unaffected, and there was no deterioration in the patient's pulmonary tuberculosis. However, it remains unclear whether the removal of the right lower bronchial lipoma contributed to the recovery from pulmonary tuberculosis. Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) technology proved useful in safely guiding the High-frequency electric snare procedure.
