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
Objective: This study aimed to determine the frequencies and trends of Methods: Data were collected retrospectively from patient registries. Laboratory-based data were extracted from the national tuberculosis (TB) referral laboratory database. All patients referred to the National Tuberculosis Reference Laboratory (NTRL) for TB diagnosis from all over the country between March 1, 2014 and September 30, 2021, and tested using the Xpert MTB/RIF assay, were included. The extracted data were entered into a Microsoft Excel sheet and analyzed by Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23. Results: Among a total of 13 772 individuals tested using the Xpert MTB/RIF assay, the majority (8223; 59.7%) were males, and 48.5% (6678) of the individuals were aged between 15 and 39 years. Conclusion: The frequency of TB and RR-TB remains high in the study setting. RR-TB was found to have a statistically significant association with previous anti-TB medication treatment. As a result, improving treatment adherence in recognized instances could assist in preventing MTB and RR-TB cases.
