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: To explore the changes in latent categories of stigma among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis over time and their correlation with treatment adherence. Methods: A total of 236 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis were selected as the research subjects using the convenience sampling method. The social impact scale and medication adherence report scale were used to measure the enrolled research subjects at 1 month (T1) and 3 months (T2) after standard treatment. Latent profile analysis, latent transition analysis, and logistic regression were employed for statistical analysis. Results: The scores of treatment adherence of pulmonary tuberculosis patients at T1 were significantly different according to marital status (χ Conclusions: This study found that there were four dynamic trajectories of stigma in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis: continuous high stigma group (38.65%), continuous low stigma group (28.37%), decreasing stigma group (24.16%), and increasing stigma group (8.82%). Compared with the continuous low stigma group, the risk of low treatment adherence of patients in the other three groups was significantly increased.
