1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Cutaneous tuberculosis (CTB) is a rare manifestation of extrapulmonary tuberculosis that is frequently misdiagnosed due to its diverse clinical presentation and resemblance to other dermatological conditions. Tuberculosis verrucosa cutis (TBVC), one clinical manifestation of CTB, poses a particular diagnostic challenge, as lesions are often paucibacillary, resulting in negative culture and PCR results. We present the case of a 73-year-old woman with a 10-year history of recurrent skin lesions on her left hand, initially diagnosed as eczema and exacerbated by topical corticosteroid treatment. Despite repeated negative histopathological stains, mycobacterial cultures. and PCR for
