Characteristic resistance mechanism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to DC-159a, a new respiratory quinolone.
Article in Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 G88C mutation in GyrA is one of the key alterations by which Mycobacterium tuberculosis mutants acquire DC-159a resistance in vitro. A novel double mutation in GyrA, G88C D94H, conferred high DC-159a resistance. Different mutation patterns in GyrA were demonstrated for DC-159a-resistant mutants and quinolone-resistant multidrug-resistant (QR-MDR) M. tuberculosis isolates, with a mutation either at position 90 or 94 and double mutations at 90 and 91 or at 90 and 94. DC-159a might be promising for QR M. tuberculosis treatment.
