A scoping review of interventions to address TB associated respiratory disability.
Article in EClinicalMedicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
There is a growing body of data describing a high burden of respiratory morbidity amongst pulmonary TB patients and survivors, with up to half thought to experience residual respiratory symptoms, abnormal spirometry, or structural pathology after TB treatment completion. Many patients experiencing marked impacts on their lives and livelihoods. However, there remain no guidelines or evidence-based frameworks for integrated TB-respiratory care during or post TB treatment completion. In this scoping review, completed in collaboration with the WHO Global Tuberculosis Programme, we have identified a lack of primary data on the clinical efficacy, cost effectiveness or feasibility of six potential interventions for the prevention and management of TB-associated respiratory impairment and disability, with a lack of studies in children and adolescents. There is a need for robust interventional trials to improve the long-term respiratory outcomes of people affected by pulmonary TB disease, and to explore how these might be implemented within resource-limited settings.
