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
objectiveTo assess the value of serum amyloid A (SAA), procalcitonin (PCT) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) complicated by pneumonia.
objectiveWe collected serum samples from patients with pneumonia, patients with PTB, patients with PTB complicated by pneumonia and patients with PTB complicated by sepsis hospitalized in our hospital between April, 2019 and April, 2020. Serum levels of SAA, PCT and hs-CRP were tested, and receiver- operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate their efficacy for predicting PTB with concurrent pneumonia and the possibility of differentiating PTB cases with pneumonia from those with sepsis using these 3 parameters. We also tested serum levels of SAA, PCT and hs-CRP in patients with PTB and those with PTB complicated by pneumonia admitted from May to July in 2020 to verify the accuracy of these 3 parameters combined for predicting the complication of PTB by pneumonia.
objectiveCompared with the patients with PTB, the patients with pneumonia had significantly higher SAA and hs-CRP levels; serum SAA, PCT and hs-CRP levels were all significantly elevated in patients with PTB complicated by pneumonia (all
objectiveCombined detection of serum SAA and PCT levels can be helpful in the diagnosis of PTB complicated by pneumonia, but neither of them is capable of differentiating the complication of pneumonia from sepsis possibly due to influence by abnormal blood coagulation.
