Tuberculosis preventive therapy (TPT) to prevent tuberculosis co-infection among adults with HIV-associated cryptococcal meningitis: A clinician's perspective.
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 2 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
As part of the END TB strategy, the World Health organization (WHO) recommends provision of tuberculosis preventive therapy (TPT) to all people at high risk of developing active TB disease. Patients with HIV-associated cryptococcal meningitis are severely immunocompromised and therefore should be eligible for TPT. In this commentary we discuss the challenges associated with starting tuberculosis preventive therapy in patients with HIV associated cryptococcal meningitis in a clinical setting, we highlight the benefit, existing gaps and research opportunities of tuberculosis preventive therapy in this patient population.
