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
backgroundThe co-occurrence of tuberculosis (TB) and diabetes mellitus presents a significant global health challenge, marked by a bidirectional relationship. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the tuberculosis predictive index (TPI) score, developed by Isfandiari et al., in predicting TB occurrence among individuals living with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
methodsA case-control study was conducted using primary data collected through questionnaires administered to individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus, with and without pulmonary TB, at the internal medicine outpatient clinic of Fatmawati General Hospital from June to August 2024. The study compared TPI scores between those with type 2 diabetes mellitus who had TB and those who did not.
resultsTPI scores were significantly associated with TB risk. Individuals with both type 2 diabetes mellitus and TB had a 6.8-fold higher risk (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.6-17.6; p<0.001) than those without TB. Further chi-square analysis identified three significant risk factors: individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus exhibiting TB-like symptoms had a 13.3-fold increased TB risk (95% CI, 5.1-34.3; p<0.001); those with a body mass index below 18.5 kg/m² had a 3.3-fold higher risk (95% CI, 1.0-11.0; p=0.039); and those living in poorly ventilated homes (ventilation ≤10%) had a 3.2-fold higher risk (95% CI, 1.0-9.8; p=0.035).
conclusionThis study demonstrates that individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus who developed TB had significantly higher TPI scores, corresponding to a 6.8-fold increased risk compared to their counterparts without TB. The TPI score may serve as a valuable tool for predicting TB risk among populations living with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
