1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The identification and screening of children at high risk of tuberculosis is essential to the control and prevention of child tuberculosis (TB). BUTIMBA, an active case finding and household contact-tracing project implemented between 2013 and 2015 in Eswatini, evaluated 5,413 contacts of 1,568 index cases, of whom 82 (1.5%) were diagnosed with TB disease. We conducted univariate and multivariate clustered logistic regression analyses of risk factors for any TB diagnosis among child household contacts of TB cases. Children younger than 5 years and children with positive HIV status were more likely to have TB than children aged 5-14 years and children with negative HIV status, respectively (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 2.2,
