Incidence, laboratory diagnosis and predictors of tracheobronchial tuberculosis in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Chongqing, China.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Tracheobronchial tuberculosis (TBTB) is reported in 10-40% of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). Due to its non-specific presentation, the diagnosis and management are frequently delayed. The aim of the present study was to investigate the incidence, predictors and laboratory diagnosis of concomitant TBTB and PTB in Chongqing, China. Bronchoscopy was performed in all patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed PTB in order to detect TBTB between January 2018 and April 2019 in a sub-tertiary hospital in Chongqing, China. The clinical characteristics and laboratory data were analyzed to identify predictors and determine the diagnostic yield of TBTB. A total of 341 (31.4%) of the 1,085 patients with PTB who underwent the bronchoscopic examination presented with concomitant TBTB. The parameters of female sex [odds ratio (OR)=2.57], clinical symptoms (OR=6.26) and atelectasis (OR=4.3) were independent predictors of TBTB. Cough (OR=32.48) and atelectasis (OR=3.14) were independent predictors of TBTB-associated tracheobronchial stenosis.
