Burden and clinical characteristics of high grade tuberculosis destroyed lung: a nationwide study.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundLittle clinical information on high grade tuberculosis destroyed lung (TDL) is available. The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics and healthcare utilization of high grade TDL patients, and compared the differences between acute exacerbation and healthcare burden according to inhaler compliance.
methodsThis was an observational retrospective cohort study using the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment (HIRA) service database (2011-2015). Patients diagnosed with high grade TDL in 2011 were enrolled and reviewed for 5 years. The patients were further divided into adherent and non-adherent groups. Their socioeconomic outcomes according to treatment adherence in 2012 were analyzed.
resultsAmong the 13,346 patients diagnosed with high grade TDL, 3,637 were assigned to the adherent group and 9,709 to the non-adherent group. Overall, 65.91% of the enrolled patients were male and the mean age of the study population was 64.68±10.06 years. All patients visited a tertiary hospital, but 99.04% and 69.74% also visited primary and secondary hospitals, respectively. The mean number of hospital admissions per year was 1.38±2.03 times per patient. The average total annual per-patient cost was US$4,140.95±3,715.01 and each patient spent a total of 56.21±45.28 days per year using hospital services. The majority of the patients in the adherent group were male (80.09%
conclusionsHigh grade TDL imposes a high socioeconomic burden in Korea. Estimated medical costs and exacerbation event rate were higher in the adherent group whereas number of days of healthcare usage was significantly lower.
