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.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is a devastating disease of worldwide importance. The availability of the genome sequence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent, has stimulated a large variety of genome-scale initiatives. These include international structural genomics efforts which have the dual aim of characterising potential new drug targets and addressing key aspects of the biology of Mtb. This review highlights the various ways in which structural analysis has illuminated the biological activities of Mtb gene products, which were previously of unknown or uncertain function. Key information comes from the protein fold, from bound ligands, solvent molecules, ions etc. or from unexpectedly modified amino acid residues. Most importantly, the three dimensional structure of a protein permits the integration of data from many sources, both bioinformatic and experimental, to develop testable functional hypotheses. This has led to many new insights into TB biology.
