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

p-Aminosalicylic acid (PAS) is an important compound for treating multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (TB). Previous studies showed that thyA mutations are often related to PAS resistance in clinical isolates. We performed a systematic analysis of isolate genotypes and detected mutations in three folate pathway genes (folC, thyA, and ribD) in 61.1% (127/208) of PAS-resistant isolates, including 11 double mutants. This result expands our knowledge about the distribution and frequency of mutations related to PAS resistance in mycobacterial clinical isolates.
