Pregnancy among people with TB disease.
Article in IJTLD open, 2026. 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
backgroundGlobally, TB disproportionately impacts people of childbearing age. However, the impact of pregnancy among people with TB in California is unknown.
methodsWomen aged 15-49 years with TB in California during 1993-2019 were matched to California birth records to identify those whose pregnancies or postpartum periods overlapped with TB treatment. Demographic and clinical variables were compared by pregnancy status, which included 'peri-pregnant' (all pregnant categories), 'pre-pregnant' (treatment started before and continued during pregnancy), 'pregnant' (treatment started during pregnancy), and 'postpartum' (treatment started within 3 months of a live birth).
resultsPregnancy and TB co-occurred among 7% of 15,092 individuals. Peri-pregnant people were more likely to be under 30 years old (
conclusionPregnancy occurs commonly among people of childbearing age with TB in California. Current TB screening practices among pregnant patients might prevent or detect early TB disease.
