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

Despite efforts to reduce its incidence, tuberculosis (TB) control still challenges the municipality of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This study aimed to analyze the temporal trend and effect of TB surveillance and access to health services on the detection of TB cases in Rio de Janeiro (2014-2022). This ecological study evaluated all cases of TB that were reported monthly in residents of Rio de Janeiro. A segmented joinpoint regression model was developed to identify points of change in the trend of notifications and calculate monthly percentage changes. Generalized additive models were used to evaluate the effect of implementing the rapid molecular test, TB surveillance actions, and primary care coverage in the detection of TB cases. The period from January 2014 to December 2022 showed a median of 677 cases of TB per month, with an increasing monthly variation of 0.49% (95%CI: 0.19; 0.79) from January 2014 to August 2017 and of 0.72% (95%CI: 0.16; 1.29) from December 2020 to December 2022. The multiple models associated the number of home visits and percentage of primary care coverage with the notification of TB cases. Access to primary care services and the increase in home visits are essential to expand the detection of TB cases in Rio de Janeiro by the rapid molecular test.
