Use of a recombinant strain of Mycobacterium avium expressing beta-galactosidase to evaluate the activities of antimycobacterial agents inside macrophages.

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
A reliable and low-cost method that enables rapid screening of the activity exerted by new antimicrobial agents on intracellularly growing Mycobacterium avium has been developed. To this aim, a recombinant (lacZ) strain of M. avium expressing the Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase gene was used to evaluate, in murine macrophages, the susceptibility of M. avium to common antimycobacterial agents. beta-Galactosidase levels, measured in the presence of each of the antibiotics tested, were closely correlated with the number of CFU recovered from the M. avium lacZ strain-infected macrophages.
