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

Treatment and prevention paradigms in TB have been dominated by a 'one-size-fits-all' approach, in which all persons are given the same treatment regimens. This stands in contrast to other health conditions, where differentiated models of care have been shown to be effective. In this Viewpoint, we make the case for considering multiple factors when deciding which regimens should be offered to people with TB infection and disease. Choice about which regimens to use should be made in conjunction with people who have TB and consider efficacy, safety, duration, pill burden, formulation, drug interactions, time spent in monitoring, drug susceptibility, compatibility with other areas of life, and availability of support services. Ideally, these choices should be considered within an equity framework with the most intensified services being offered to those considered most vulnerable.
