Ophthalmoplegia and vision loss in extrapulmonary tuberculosis with bilateral cavernous sinus involvement.
Article in IDCases, 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
We report the case of a 41-year-old woman who initially presented with headache, right hemifacial hypoesthesia, and a right abducens palsy. Initial external investigations failed to identify an etiology, and cerebral MRI was considered normal, although later review revealed subtle meningeal thickening. Approximately two months later, she developed a right pupil-involving oculomotor nerve palsy, followed by progressive visual loss in the right eye, a right inferior quadrantanopia, and a left abducens palsy. Repeat MRI demonstrated a new contrast-enhancing lesion in the right cavernous sinus, vasculitis involving the intracavernous segment of the left internal carotid artery, FLAIR hyperintensity involving the optic chiasm and left optic tract, and dural thickening with contrast enhancement consistent with pachymeningitis. Tuberculosis was suspected based on a positive QuantiFERON-TB Gold test. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis showed mild lymphocytic pleocytosis but was negative for
