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

Phenotypically distinct clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are capable of altering the balance that exists between the pathogen and human host and ultimately the outcome of infection. This study has identified two M. tuberculosis strains (i.e. HN885 and HN1554) among a bank of clinical isolates with a striking defect in phagocytosis by primary human macrophages when compared with strain Erdman, a commonly used laboratory strain for studies of pathogenesis. Mass spectrometry in conjunction with NMR studies unequivocally confirmed that both HN885 and HN1554 contain truncated and more branched forms of mannose-capped lipoarabinomannan (ManLAM) with a marked reduction of their linear arabinan (corresponding mainly to the inner Araf-alpha(1-->5)-Araf unit) and mannan (with fewer 6-Manp residues and more substitutions in the linear Manp-alpha(1-->6)-Manp unit) domains. The truncation in the ManLAM molecules produced by strains HN885 and HN1554 led to a significant reduction in their surface availability. In addition, there was a marked reduction of higher order phosphatidyl-myo-inositol mannosides and the presence of dimycocerosates, triglycerides, and phenolic glycolipid in their cell envelope. Less exposed ManLAM and reduced higher order phosphatidyl-myo-inositol mannosides in strains HN885 and HN1554 resulted in their low association with the macrophage mannose receptor. Despite reduced phagocytosis, ingested bacilli replicated at a fast rate following serum opsonization. Our results provide evidence that the clinical spectrum of tuberculosis may be dictated not only by the host but also by the amounts and ratios of surface exposed mycobacterial adherence factors defined by strain genotype.
