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

TB remains a major global health challenge, disproportionately affecting marginalized populations and exposing inequities. The WHO End TB Strategy aligns with the primary health care (PHC) approach to advance universal health coverage (UHC) and sustainable outcomes. Drawing on WHO's recent policy brief 'Tuberculosis and primary health care: synergies and opportunities towards universal health coverage', this article highlights the importance of reorienting health systems towards PHC to strengthen TB responses through integrated services, multisectoral collaboration and empowered communities. It explores synergies between PHC and the End TB Strategy, presenting strategies, barriers, and recommendations to promote equity, efficiency, and resilience, to accelerate progress toward ending TB.
