Association Studies of Serum Levels of TNF- α, IL-10, IFN-γ and CXCL 5 with Latent Tuberculosis Infection in Close Contacts.
Article in Infection and drug resistance, 2024. 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
Purpose: Early recognition and treatment of latent tuberculosis infection(LTBI) is key to tuberculosis(TB) prevention. However, the emergence of LTBI is influenced by a combination of factors, of which the role of individual immune cytokines remains controversial. The aim of this study is to explore the influencing factors of LTBI and their effects with cytokines on LTBI. Patients and Methods: Close contacts of tuberculosis in Urumqi City from 2021 to 2022 were selected for the study to conduct a field survey. It used logistic regression model to analyse the influencing factors of LTBI, principal component analysis to extract a composite indicators of cytokines, and structural equation modelling to explore the direct and indirect effects of cytokines and influencing factors on LTBI. Results: LTBI infection rate of 33.3% among 288 TB close contacts. A multifactorial Logistic model showed that factors influencing LTBI included education, daily contact hours, eating animal liver, and drinking coffee ( Conclusion: IL-10 and TNF-α are involved in the immune response and are directly related to LTBI. By monitoring the cytokine levels of TB close contacts and paying attention to their dietary habits and exposure, we can detect and intervene in LTBI at an early stage and control their progression to TB.
