A new drug for an old bug.
Article in Chemistry & biology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
There is an urgent need to develop new drugs for the treatment of tuberculosis, particularly against latent/persistent forms of the causative agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Krieger and colleagues use a structure-guided approach to develop novel inhibitors of malate synthase, a target in the glyoxylate shunt that is critical for pathogen survival in chronic infection.
