An evaluation study on phenotypical methods and real-time PCR for detection of
Article in Iranian journal of microbiology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesFor further confirmation of the previous in-house real-time PCR and CYP 141 target as a rapid and cheap diagnostic technique and a new target for direct detection of MATERIALS AND
methodsThirty two sputa (including 15 smear positive and 17 smear negative) and 53 Sputa (29 smear and culture positive and 24 smear and culture negative specimens) were collected from tuberculosis suspected patients from health center No. 1 and 2 respectively. A Taqman probe was used for direct detection of
resultsBecause of the results, data of health center No. 1 was not reliable. The average number of bacteria that was detected in health center No. 2 by real time PCR was 1.2E+003-7.3+004; 1.4E+004-1.29+005 and 8.27E+005-1.07+006 for one to three plus smear result groups, respectively. The overall sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of real-time PCR were 96.5% (28/29), 95.8% (23/24), (96.6%) and (96%), respectively.
conclusionCompared with the results of previous studies and being a good correlation between real-time PCR and phenotypic methods, emphasize that CYP141 is a good target for quantification of
