Tuberculosis in pregnancy.
Review in Journal of medicine and life. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Tuberculosis (TB) in pregnancy is not only a matter of the past; it is also a current problem. These days, TB appears through mass migration and tourism in countries where it was believed that this condition is eradicated. Adequate knowledge about the medical history of patients, risk factors, diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis should be part of the armamentarium of each physician involved in clinical practice. TB is mainly found in urban and socially deprived areas. Due to the length of the treatment, there is an increased risk of drug resistance in partially treated patients. Strong knowledge about the history, risk factors, diagnosis and treatment of TB should be part of the armamentarium of each physician. Many practitioners are reluctant to request a chest X-ray in pregnancy due to the fear of harming the fetus. Bypassing a diagnosis can have a devastating effect on the mother and fetus, as well as their family and medical staff. This article discusses the matters of diagnosis and treatment of asymptomatic infection and active TB in pregnancy.
