Risk factors of latent tuberculosis among chronic kidney disease with routine haemodialysis patients.
Article in Journal of clinical tuberculosis and other mycobacterial diseases, 2022. 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
introductionSince immune system alteration occurs, chronic kidney disease (CKD) on routine haemodialysis (HD) patients have a greater risk for latent tuberculosis (LTB). LTB needs special attention so that it does not develop into an active form, because infection in CKD patients increases the mortality. This study aims to determine the risk factors that associated with LTB among CKD on routine HD patients.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study conducted in Haemodialysis Unit, Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung. The subjects were recruited from March-May 2020. Subjects aged > 18 years at least have undergoing HD in 3 months and twice a week HD were included in this study. Patients with active tuberculosis (TB) suspected, malignancy, or immunocompromised were excluded. LTB was diagnosed using interferon-γ release assays (IGRA). All data including age, sex, CKD etiologies, smoking status, HD adequacy that assessed using KT/V and urea reduction ratio (URR), and contact status with TB patients were obtained and recorded in case report form.
resultsA total of 120 subjects were involved. LTB based on IGRA was occurred in 39.2% subjects, while 56.7% and 4.1% subjects had negative and indeterminate IGRA, respectively. Adequacy of HD based on KT/V value was not significantly different between positive and negative IGRA subjects. Positive IGRA subjects had lower URR (p = 0.042). Smoking status had significant association with LTB (OR = 2.5[95%CI 1.2-5.4, p = 0.017). Furthermore, URR < 73% also had significant association with LTB (OR = 2.6[1.2-5.6, p = 0.013).
conclusionSmoking status and HD adequacy based on URR < 73% are associated factors that contribute to LTB among CKD on HD patients.
