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

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), has a vast diversity of genotypes including Beijing, CAS, EAI, Haarlem, LAM, X, Ural, T, AFRI1 and AFRI2. However, genotyping can be expensive, time consuming and in some cases, results may vary depending on methodology used. Here, we proposed a new set of 10 SNPs using a total of 249 MTB genomes, and selected by first the inclusion/ exclusion (IE) criteria using spoligotyping and phylogenies, followed by the selection of the nonsynonymous SNPs present in the most conserved cluster of orthologous groups (COG) of each genotype of MTB. Genotype assignment of the new set of 10 SNPs was validated using an additional of 34 MTB genomes and results showed 100% correlation with their known genotypes. Our set of 10 SNPs have not been previously reported and cover the MTB genotypes that are prevalent worldwide. This set of SNPs could be used for molecular epidemiology with drug resistant markers.
