1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundWhile the End Tuberculosis (TB) Strategy has been implemented worldwide, the cause of the TB epidemic is multifactorial and not fully understood.

objectiveThis study aims to investigate the risk factors of TB and incorporate these factors to forecast the incidence of TB infection across different age groups in Sichuan, China.

methodsCorrelation and linear regression analyses were conducted to assess the relationships between TB cases and ecological factors, including environmental, economic, and social factors, in Sichuan Province from 2006 to 2017. The transfer function-noise model was used to forecast trends, considering both time and multifactor effects.

resultsFrom 2006 to 2017, Sichuan Province had a reported cumulative incidence rate of 1321.08 cases per 100,000 individuals in male patients and 583.04 cases per 100,000 individuals in female patients. There were significant sex differences in the distribution of cases among age groups (trend χ

conclusionsThe End TB Strategy in Sichuan should consider environmental, educational, medical, social, personal, and other conditions, and further substantial efforts are needed especially for male patients aged 0-24 years, female patients aged 0-14 years, and female patients older than 64 years.
