Article in Clinical epidemiology and global health. 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
Background: Healthcare workers (HCWs) are at an increased risk of developing Methods: A prospective cohort study of HCWs (n = 178) was conducted at the public University Hospital of the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León (UANL) in Monterrey, Mexico from 2017 to 2019. Eligible HCWs working in the emergency or internal medicine departments were tested at baseline using QuantiFERON Results: Prevalence of TBI was 63.5% at baseline as detected by QFT and/or TST. Males, nurses, and administrative staff had increased odds of TBI at baseline. Among the 52 participants who tested negative for TBI at baseline, 16 (30.8%) converted to TBI. Combined baseline and follow-up test results indicated fair agreement (kappa = 0.38) between the QFT and TST. Conclusion: This study found both high prevalence and conversion of TBI among HCWs at the UANL University Hospital in Monterrey, Mexico and identified associated biological and occupational risk factors. These findings highlight the importance of repeat, short-term testing in regions with high TB prevalence, and underscore the need for improved TBI diagnostics.
