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

We observed shifting trends in tuberculosis (TB) epidemiology in the EU/EEA between 2019 and 2023. In 2023, TB notifications among people of foreign origin increased by 24.6% after decreasing between 2019 and 2020. The majority originated from African and East Mediterranean regions, with a 316.4% upsurge in TB among Ukrainians in 2022-23. Rifampicin-resistant/multidrug-resistant TB increased by ≥ 60% in 2019-23, mainly among Ukrainians. Rapid response to shifting epidemiological patterns is crucial for efficient TB prevention and control within the EU/EEA.
