Higher Rates of Tuberculosis Among Class B1 Filipino Immigrants to Hawaii Compared to Nationwide, 2010-2014.
Article in Journal of immigrant and minority health, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundImmigrants to the United States from countries with a high burden of tuberculosis (TB) who have abnormal chest radiographs but negative sputum cultures during pre-immigration screening (TB Class B1) have a high risk of being diagnosed with TB disease within 1 year of arrival.
methodsUsing 2010-2014 national surveillance data, we compared proportions of Class B1 Filipino immigrants who received a diagnosis of TB disease within 1 year of arrival to Hawaii to proportions in other U.S. states (not including Hawaii) using chi-squared tests.
resultsIn Hawaii, 40/1190 (3.4%) of Class B1 Filipino immigrants to Hawaii received a diagnosis of TB disease within 1 year of arrival compared with 220/16,035 (1.4%) nationwide (P < .01).
conclusionsDuring 2010-2014, the percentage of recent Class B1 Filipino immigrants in Hawaii with TB disease diagnosed within 1 year of arrival was over twice that as nationwide.
