PCR comparison of Mycobacterium avium isolates obtained from patients and foods.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Mycobacterium avium is a cause of disseminated disease in AIDS patients. A need for a better understanding of possible sources and routes of transmission of this organism has arisen. This study utilized a PCR typing method designed to amplify DNA segments located between the insertion sequences IS1245 and IS1311 to compare levels of relatedness of M. avium isolates found in patients and foods. Twenty-five of 121 food samples yielded 29 mycobacterial isolates, of which 12 were M. avium. Twelve food and 103 clinical M. avium isolates were tested. A clinical isolate was found to be identical to a food isolate, and close relationships were found between two patient isolates and two food isolates. Relatedness between food isolates and patient isolates suggests the possibility that food is a potential source of M. avium infection. This study demonstrates a rapid, inexpensive method for typing M. avium, possibly replacing pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
