Tuberculosis Among Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander Persons: United States and U.S.-Affiliated Pacific Islands, 2010-2019.
Article in Health equity, 2022. 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
Background: In recent years, tuberculosis (TB) incidence in the United States has declined overall but remained high among Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander (NH/PI) persons. Few studies have examined the epidemiology of TB among NH/PI persons, particularly in the U.S.-Affiliated Pacific Islands (USAPI). We describe TB incidence and characteristics of NH/PI patients during 2010-2019. Methods: We used data from the National Tuberculosis Surveillance System to characterize TB cases reported among NH/PI persons born in the 50 U.S. states (defined to include District of Columbia) and the USAPI. We calculated annual TB incidence among NH/PI patients, stratified by place of birth (U.S. states or USAPI). Using Asian persons born outside the United States-persons historically grouped with NH/PI persons as one racial category-as the reference, we compared demographic, clinical, and socio-behavioral characteristics of NH/PI TB patients. Results: During 2010-2019, 4359 TB cases were reported among NH/PI patients born in the U.S. states ( Conclusions: TB incidence among NH/PI persons is high, particularly among persons born in the USAPI, emphasizing the need to enhance TB prevention strategies in these communities. Interventions should be tailored toward those who experience the highest risk, including NH/PI children and adolescents.
