PCR-hybridization assay for Mycobacterium avium complex: optimization of detection in peripheral blood from humans.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
We evaluated the sensitivity of a DNA amplification test for the detection of Mycobacterium avium in blood samples using different blood components and different DNA extraction methods. M. avium-inoculated blood samples were processed to obtain separate blood components: peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), polymorphonuclear cells (PMNCs), and whole-blood sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-lysate pellets. The sensitivity for the detection of the lowest mycobacterial load (1 CFU/ml) was significantly greater (P < 0.01) with DNA extracted from SDS-lysate pellets than with DNA extracted from PBMCs or PMNCs. Subsequently, DNA extraction methods based on guanidine NaOH, and proteinase were compared. The sensitivity of the guanidine-based method was significantly greater (P < 0.01) than those of the others.
