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

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the epidemiological characteristics and trends of notified multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in Wenzhou City, China, from 2014 to 2023, with a focus on differences between migrant and local populations among reported TB cases. Methods: This was a facility-based retrospective cohort study that included all bacteriologically confirmed TB cases notified between 1 January 2014 and 31 December 2023 in the Tuberculosis Information Management System (TBIMS) of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the hospital's laboratory information system, provided they had available phenotypic drug-susceptibility testing (pDST) results. Pearson's chi-square test was used to compare drug-resistance rates between groups, the trend chi-square test was applied to assess temporal changes, and a Sankey diagram was employed to illustrate the origins and intra-city distribution of MDR-TB among the migrant population. Results: Among 10,993 notified TB patients, 734 (6.68%) were classified as MDR-TB. The proportion of MDR-TB among notified cases declined over the study period ( Conclusion: The proportion of MDR-TB among notified TB cases in Wenzhou City has steadily decreased. Migrants account for almost half of these notified MDR-TB cases. Surveillance-driven and migrant-targeted interventions should be prioritized to further reduce MDR-TB transmission.
