Increased risk of tuberculosis after gastrectomy and chemotherapy in gastric cancer: a 7-year cohort study.
Article in Gastric cancer : official journal of the International Gastric Cancer Association and the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundGastrectomy for peptic ulcers and chemotherapy for malignancy are known risk factors for tuberculosis (TB). However, this relationship has rarely been investigated in patients with gastric cancer.
methodsIn a retrospective cohort study from 2000 to 2006, data for 2215 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer at our hospital were compared with data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Taiwan, to identify confirmed cases of TB.
resultsIn patients with gastric cancer without a history of gastrectomy and without previous anti-TB treatment, the overall crude incidence of new-onset TB was 788 per 100,000 person-years. Compared with the general population, the overall age-sex standardized incidence (SI) in gastric cancer patients was 134.3 (SI ratio [SIR]: 2.11, p < 0.05), and the recurrence rate among patients with previous anti-TB treatment was 18% (4/22) after gastric cancer diagnosis. Gastrectomy was a significant risk factor for active TB incidence [SI 159 (95% confidence interval [CI], 80-237, SIR: 2.5, p < 0.05), and chemotherapy alone seemed to be a risk factor, but was without statistical significance (SIR: 12.5, p > 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed old age, male gender, previous anti-TB treatment, and gastrectomy as significant risk factors for TB. In stratified analysis, an interaction between old TB patterns on chest films and chemotherapy was observed.
conclusionsOld age, male gender, previous anti-TB treatment, and gastrectomy were significant risk factors for TB. An increased risk of TB incidence after chemotherapy was observed in patients with old TB pattern chest films initially, suggesting an interaction between chest film patterns and chemotherapy.
