Deciphering Tuberculous Meningitis: From Clinical Challenges to Novel Models and Pathogenic Pathways.
Review in Current topics in medicinal chemistry, 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
During and after the COVID-19 pandemic, Tuberculosis (TB) has reestablished with higher figures due to interruptions in the Directly Observed Treatment Short course (DOTS) despite underreporting. The rising consequences would have extended to extra-pulmonary forms of TB as well, including Tuberculous Meningitis (TBM). Considering the fact that TBM is the most dangerous and worst form of TB, we found the need to scan the literature to highlight various aspects of TBM. Epidemiology of TBM is proportionally less frightening, but the consequent mortalities and morbidities are more alarming than pulmonary TB. Here, we address critical research gaps in Tuberculous Meningitis that warrant further investigations. The highlighted aspects encompass a comprehensive understanding of TBM's clinical presentation and improved diagnostic tools for timely detection, the exploration of innovative chemotherapies and surgical interventions, the unraveling of the role of the blood-brain barrier in disease onset, investigating of the contributions of various brain cells to TBM development, deciphering the complex inflammatory response, exploring the involvement of Matrix Metalloproteinases in tissue damage, delving into host-pathogen genetics influencing susceptibility, utilizing robust
