COVID-19 Pandemic and Tuberculosis Control: A Narrative Review.
Review in Tanaffos, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: The world is currently struggling with the COVID-19pandemic. Measures to control the COVID-19 pandemic have affected other health problems and diseases, including tuberculosis (TB) and its control. The present narrative review aimed at reviewing published literature on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on TB control. Materials and Methods: English language databases, including PubMed, ISI, Scopus, and Google Scholar, were searched using the keywords "Tuberculosis, COVID-19, and Coronavirus" to find relevant articles. Results: Problems and limitations in financial and human resources, as well as medical and laboratory services caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, contribute to the reduction in the number of newly diagnosed patients with TB. More effort in identifying patients with TB is of great importance, and if the global number of newly diagnosed patients with TB decreases by 25% for three consecutive months due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the TB mortality rate will increase by 13%. An increase in the TB mortality rate means the failure of TB control programs to reach the targets of the Global End TB Strategy. Conclusion: According to the latest statistics released by the Ministry of Health, the incidence of TB in Iran has not yet reached fewer than 100 cases per million population. On the other hand, being a neighbor with countries with a high risk of TB is a serious threat to Iran. Therefore, further effort to control TB during the COVID-19 pandemic is particularly important.
