What quality of care means to tuberculosis survivors.
Article in Journal of clinical tuberculosis and other mycobacterial diseases, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Quality of care for patients of TB suffers in India as well as in other countries, because the commonly accepted definitions of high quality care, rarely goes beyond correct diagnosis, treatment and adherence. The problem with the existing definitions and metrics of quality careis that they leave out patients, and when high quality care is defined without patients' perspectives, their needs and expectations are not addressed. Thispaper, based on a workshop held by TB survivors, attempts to examine the current state of quality of care extended to patients of TB, and to improve the scope of this care for the affected individuals, by the government, the healthcare system, and the society. The aim of the workshop and this paperis to arrive at a comprehensive, inclusive, and most importantly, a patient-centric definition of what quality of care looks like - to them.
