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

backgroundThe spread of drug-resistant tuberculosis has challenged tuberculosis control strategies globally. The present study aims to analyze the frequency of mutations in

methodsLine probe assay was carried out on 720 consecutive sputum samples of MDR suspects from June 2012 to May 2013. Mutation frequencies in the

resultsMutations were identified in 269 (37.6%) samples, as follows: 55 (7.6%) samples had mutations conferring resistance to only isoniazid, 84 (11.6%) had mutations conferring resistance to only rifampicin and 130 (18%) isolates had mutations conferring resistance to both isoniazid and rifampicin. The most frequent mutation in the

conclusionThe patterns and the frequency of the mutations identified in this study indicate the most frequent mutations at S531L codon in the
