Central Nervous System Tuberculoma in Qatar: Clinical, Radiological, and Pathological Insights From a Rare Case With Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Intracranial tuberculomas are an exceptionally rare manifestation of tuberculosis in Qatar and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region; their presentation can closely mimic other intracranial pathologies, posing diagnostic challenges. A 24-year-old Indian woman presented with headache and new-onset seizures, with a prior history of mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Neuroimaging revealed multiple intracranial ring-enhancing lesions associated with surrounding edema and midline shift. Based on the clinical and radiological findings, anti-tuberculosis therapy was initiated promptly. Serial follow-up imaging demonstrated significant regression and eventual resolution of the lesions, correlating with clinical improvement. Intracranial tuberculomas remain rare in the GCC, often presenting with nonspecific neurological symptoms and atypical ring-enhancing brain lesions. Clinicians must maintain a high degree of suspicion, as early recognition and timely initiation of therapy are crucial to achieve complete lesion resolution and avoid invasive interventions.
