The impact of COVID-19 on tuberculosis in most populated state of India: A geospatial meta-analysis.
Review in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Tuberculosis is one of the major burdens to developing nations. India is among the countries categorized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as experiencing a significant burden of TB, HIV-associated TB, and MDR/RR-TB within the context of low- and middle-income nations. Globally South East Asian and African region alone accounted for 82% of death (HIV negative), where India accounts for 36% of TB fatalities. Materials and Methods: The data was extracted from NIKSHAY web portal on TB notification cases in UP, India. The random effects meta-analysis was performed to estimate pooled proportion of TB cases in public and private notified during both the periods. Spatial analysis was used to display the spread of TB cases across the state, during both the periods. Results: A total 75 districts data on TB notified cases were available for current investigation. The pooled proportion of TB cases were 0.24 (0.21, 0.27) and 0.76 (0.73, 0.79) during COVID-19 period for private and public hospitals, respectively. Similarly, the pooled proportion of TB cases were 0.26 (0.23, 0.29) and 0.74 (0.71, 0.77) post-COVID-19 for private and public hospitals, respectively. Conclusion: The proportion of TB cases were more in public hospital as compared to private hospitals during COVID-19 period. Similarly, result was obtained in post-COVID-19 period.
