In the eye of the multiple beholders: Qualitative research perspectives on studying and encouraging quality of TB care in India.
Article in Journal of clinical tuberculosis and other mycobacterial diseases, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
This paper outlines insights qualitative research brings to the study of quality of care. It advocates understanding care as sequential, interpersonal action aimed at improving health and documenting the networks in which care occurs. It assesses the strengths and weakness of contemporary quantitative and qualitative approaches to examining quality of care for tuberculosis (TB) before outlining three qualitative research programs aimed at understanding quality of TB in India. Three case studies focus on the diagnosis level in the cascade of TB care and use qualitative research to examine the clinical use of pharmaceuticals as diagnostics, the development of diagnostic tests, and the role of care providers in the utilization of diagnostic services. They show that 1) care must be understood as part of relationships over time, 2) the presence or absence of technologies does not always imply their expected use in care, 3) physicians' provision of care is often inflected by their perceptions of patient desires, and 4) effective care is not always perfectly aligned with global health priorities. Qualitative methods with a networked perspective on care provide novel findings that can and have been used when developing quality of care improvement interventions for TB.
