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

The commercially available interferon gamma release assays T-SPOT.TB and QuantiFERON-TB Gold/QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube may be important, besides the direct detection with culturing, PCR or the Mantoux skin test, for the diagnosis of tuberculosis as a possible cause of uveitis. It is important to know the limitations of these tests to get a fast and reliable diagnosis which may necessitate initiation of causative treatment of the tuberculosis to prevent further damage to the eye and to avoid multi-drug resistant tuberculosis strains.
