Growth and anemia among children with tuberculosis infection at different sites in Southwest China.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objectives: To explore the effects of tuberculosis (TB) infection at different sites on anthropometric indicators, malnutrition and anemia incidence in children in Southwest China. Methods: From January 2012 to December 2021, a total of 368 children aged 1 month to 16 years were enrolled. According to the sites of TB infection, they were divided into three groups: tuberculous meningitis (T group), tuberculous meningitis complicated withpulmonary tuberculosis (TP group), and tuberculous meningitis complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis and abdominal tuberculosis (TPA group). Data on weight, height, nutritional risk, blood biochemical indicators and basic descriptions were collected within 48 h after admission. Results: The body mass index-for-age Conclusions: Children with tuberculous meningitis were at risk for growth disorders and anemia, especially when complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis and abdominal tuberculosis. The prevalence of anemia and malnutrition was the highest among patients aged 1 month to 2 years and 10-16 years, respectively. Nutritional status was one of the causes of abandoning treatment.
