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

Although poverty and tuberculosis are insidiously linked, knowledge of the relationship between social determinants of health (SDoHs) and post-tuberculosis lung disease (PTLD) is limited. This study aimed to analyze the association between physical function, pulmonary function, and SDoHs in individuals with PTLD (iwPTLD), considering the impact of social inequalities on physical performance. This cross-sectional study collected social data from 69 iwPTLDs using a standardized assessment form. The patients underwent pulmonary function testing via spirometry and body plethysmography, as well as respiratory muscle strength and quadriceps muscle strength (QMS) testing. They also completed the six-minute step test (6MST). The median value of steps climbed by participants on the 6MST was 88 (57-117), corresponding to 50.1% (34.9-73.2) of the predicted value. The mean QMS was 28.7 ± 11.9 kgf, with 11 participants (17.4%) showing QMS below the cutoff point. Spirometry revealed normal, obstructive, restrictive, and mixed patterns in 19 (27.5%), 20 (29%), 18 (26.1%), and 12 (17.4%) of the participants, respectively. Performance on the 6MST showed no statistically significant association with SDoHs. QMS showed a statistically significant association with treated sewage (
