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
Trachoma recrudescence is a serious concern for trachoma control programs. Programs define recrudescence as the return of trachomatous inflammation-follicular (TF) prevalence above elimination threshold (≥5%) on district-level trachoma surveillance surveys (TSSs). This study aimed to determine potential correlates of trachoma recrudescence within a historically highly endemic region. Between 2015 and 2021, population-based TSSs were conducted in 51 districts of Amhara, Ethiopia. District estimates were calculated accounting for multistage design; logistic regression was used to estimate the association of key correlates with recrudescence at the district level. Among the 51 districts, 17 (33%) were recrudescent. Correlates of recrudescence included indicators of historic trachoma burden, such as higher trachomatous inflammation-intense (TI) prevalence (odds ratio [OR]: 2.6, CI: 1.4-5.3) and higher
