Peritoneal Tuberculosis Mimicking Pseudomyxoma Peritonei: A Diagnostic Challenge.
Article in Cureus, 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
Peritoneal tuberculosis (TB) is a rare extrapulmonary manifestation that can closely mimic peritoneal carcinomatosis or pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) due to overlapping imaging features such as omental caking, ascites, and adnexal masses. We present a case of a young woman in her early 20s with peritoneal TB with scalloped liver margins and peritoneal thickening with bulky ovaries, initially suspected as PMP. Imaging and laboratory findings led to suspicion of malignancy, but cartridge-based nucleic acid amplification test (CBNAAT) analysis confirmed TB. This case underscores the importance of recognizing imaging clues that might help to distinguish TB from peritoneal neoplasms.
