Sudden Death of a Young Man Due to Massive Haemoptysis Associated With Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Asphyxia includes a large number of possible causes and mechanisms, such as infectious diseases of the lungs. Among these, tuberculosis (TB) is one of the main infectious causes of death worldwide. The burden of TB is very high, by virtue of antibiotic resistance and the risk of other concomitant infections, such as HIV. A major problem is related to the omitted diagnosis of TB infection which, in some cases, may remain completely unknown to the patient, with a significant increase in mortality and morbidity risk. There has been a decrease in the reported cases of sudden death due to TB, especially that associated with hemoptysis and aspiration of blood. In this report, we describe a case of sudden death that occurred in a young male in the workplace, under unclear circumstances. The autopsy detected acute asphyxia due to a massive pulmonary hemorrhage in the individual, who was apparently suffering from TB. The autopsy proved to be essential for understanding the cause of death and investigating the adequacy of the health surveillance measures carried out on the individual.
