Delays in Tuberculosis Care in the Indian Population: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Article in Journal of global infectious diseases. 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
Introduction: Being harmful to patients, delayed diagnosis and treatment can spread tuberculosis (TB) in the community, posing a significant challenge to TB elimination efforts. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the median delays of TB care and the proportion of the Indian population experiencing these delays. Methods: Data extraction and screening were conducted from August 1, 2024, to September 30, 2024, using PubMed, Scopus, and DOAJ search engines. The pooled proportion of the Indian population experiencing the total delay in TB care was estimated, at a 95% confidence interval (CI), using a random-effects model that assumed potential heterogeneity. Results: Of the 14 studies, 92.85% ( Conclusion: The findings of this study can help program managers design strategies that can help in reducing delays in TB care in India.
