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

In recent years, migratory movements have increased. This study aimed to compare tuberculosis cases in migrant and autochthonous patients. We conducted a retrospective analytical cohort study of patients diagnosed with tuberculosis in the Elda Health District (Alicante, Spain) between 2013 and 2023. Of the 98 patients analyzed, 28 (29.6%) were migrants, predominantly male (65%), with a mean age of 35.6 years. Pulmonary tuberculosis was present in 82% of patients in both groups, and nine cases of drug-resistant tuberculosis were identified. No significant differences were observed between groups in treatment cure rates, mortality, or hospitalization. Unfavourable outcomes-a composite endpoint comprising mortality, treatment failure, and loss to follow-up-were more frequent in males and in patients with elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels (
