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

backgroundConsidering the high prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) in developing countries and the fact that comorbidity with diabetes mellitus (DM) imposes a higher burden on the society, this study was carried out to assess the prevalence of diabetes and its related factors in patients with TB in Mashhad, Iran.

methodsIn this study, we enrolled 405 patients over the age of 18 who had been diagnosed with TB between the years 2015 and 2016 according to the documents of the ministry of health. The participants were selected randomly from five health center domains based on the stratified sampling method. The patients were screened for diabetes according to HbA1c over 6.5% or a fasting blood sugar (FBS) level over 126 mg/dL at different time points and the patient's self-report of having DM.

resultsThe mean age of participants was 51.14±20.52 (19-92 years). The prevalence of DM in patients with TB was 21.2%, of whom 3.5% were newly diagnosed. Among potential factors, age with OR=3.786 (1.183, 12.113), body mass index with OR=9.149 (3.182, 26.302), nationality with OR=2.149 (1.122, 4.117) and TB type with 3.328 (1.44, 7.689) were associated with DM in patients with TB.

conclusionThe prevalence of DM in our study was higher than that observed in other countries. Our study showed associated factors like age, body mass index, and TB type to be very important. Also, the prevalence of DM was different in patients with different nationality.
