Epidemiological characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis among students in Guizhou, China: a retrospective study from 2010 to 2020.

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
objectiveWe described epidemiological characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) among students and evaluated susceptible populations and areas in Guizhou province and also to provide scientific suggestions for prevention and control.
settingGuizhou, China.
designThis is a retrospective epidemiological study on PTB in students.
methodsData are from the China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. We collected all PTB cases among the student population from 2010 to 2020 in Guizhou. Incidence, composition ratio and hotspot analysis were used to describe epidemiological and some clinical characteristics.
resultsA total of 37 147 new student PTB cases were registered among the population aged 5-30 years during 2010-2020. The proportions of men and women were 53.71% and 46.29%, respectively. Cases aged 15-19 years dominated (63.91%), and the proportion of ethnic groups was increasing during the period. Generally, the raw annual incidence of PTB among the population was increasing from 32.585 per 100 000 persons in 2010 to 48.872 per 100 000 persons in 2020 (
conclusionsThe population aged 15-19 years is the vulnerable population, and Bijie city is the susceptible area. BCG vaccination and promotion for active screening should be the priority of futural PTB prevention and control. Tuberculosis laboratory capacity should be improved.
