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

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the primary causes of illness and death worldwide. Indonesia ranks second globally in TB incidence. Recurrent or relapsed TB, especially with multifocal involvement, presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, often complicated by incomplete treatment and limited molecular diagnostic capacity in developing countries. We present the case of a 26-year-old woman with a history of pulmonary, lymphatic, and skeletal tuberculosis who developed recurrence shortly after completing a 12-month anti-tuberculosis regimen (August 2024-July 2025) that excluded pyrazinamide due to gastrointestinal intolerance. She presented again in September 2025 with right-sided chest pain, productive cough, and cervical lymphadenopathy. Chest radiography revealed bilateral infiltrates, and abdominal ultrasonography suggested tuberculous myositis. The pulmonary findings, positive GeneXpert MTB/RIF Ultra result, and cervical lymph node biopsy confirming caseating granulomatous lymphadenitis were identified during the initial emergency department admission, while pus culture from the osteomyelitis lesion grew
