Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Context: Population-based serosurveys are important tool to estimate proportion of population infected by SARS Cov-2 and it helps to understand various socio- demographic, behavioural factors associated it. Aim: To determine association of Covid 19 seropositivity with socio-demographic and behavioural factors among tribal population of Tripura. Settings and Design: A cross-sectional study was conducted among adult tribal population of Tripura. Methods and Material: Duration of study was six months. Blood sample was collected and serum samples were screened for the presence of COVID-19-specific antibodies using serological testing. Statistical Analysis: Analysis was done by SPSS 25. Chi-square and logistic regression were used. Results: The majority of participants were female (59.22%). Almost every participant (99.34%) was wearing a face mask. Among the participants, 68.82% were in the habit of chewing tobacco, and 26.30% were alcoholics. Age of participants [42-51 years with OR: 1.62 (1.15-2.28), 52 years and above with OR: 1.53 ((1.09-2.16)], educational status [No formal education with OR: 2.64 ((1.18-5.90), less than secondary with OR: 3.37 (1.57-7.23), Secondary education with OR: 2.92 (1.34-6.38), Higher Secondary with OR: 2.86 (1.26-6.45)], occupation [home-maker with OR: 2.85 (1.50-5.44), self-employed with OR: 3.15 (1.64-6.06), in service with OR: 7.46 (2.69-20.67)], history of non-communicable diseases with OR: 2.43 (1.76-3.35), Covid vaccination status with OR: 4.60 (3.46-6.11) and chewing tobacco with OR: 1.46 (1.13-1.88) have positive association with seropositivity status. Smokers had a lower chance of becoming seropositive with OR: 0.51 (0.31-0.83). Conclusions: Further investigations are needed to establish an association of COVID-19 seropositivity with smoking.
