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.

methodsIn a prospective cohort study of 1,275 adult residents without TBI, we measured cumulative incidence of infection at 1 year using the tuberculin skin test. We measured time spent in community settings using a validated questionnaire and related settings to incident infection using Poisson regression analysis.

resultsThe settings visited by participants varied by weekday and sex. Participants spent most of their time at home or work regardless of the weekday. New infection with

conclusionSocial settings, such as schools or worship centres, may be appropriate sites to screen for TB. Community-based interventions to control TB should consider age, sex, and day of the week to reduce gaps in coverage.
