Mycobacterial Membrane Proteins QcrB and AtpE: Roles in Energetics, Antibiotic Targets, and Associated Mechanisms of Resistance.
Article in The Journal of membrane biology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Infections caused by mycobacteria are difficult to treat due to their inherent physiology, cellular structure, and intracellular lifestyle. Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a pathogen of global concern as it causes tuberculosis (TB) in humans, which requires 6-9 months of chemotherapy. The situation is further exacerbated in the case of infections caused by drug-resistant strains, which necessitate the prolonged use of agents associated with increased host toxicities. Great effort has been invested into the development of new agents for the treatment of drug-resistant infections, in addition to novel strategies to reduce treatment time. Energy production using oxidative phosphorylation is essential for the survival of M. tuberculosis, even under conditions of dormancy. Many compounds have been recently discovered that inhibit different aspects of energy metabolism in mycobacteria, some of which have been approved for human use or are currently undergoing development. The most successful examples include inhibitors of QcrB and AtpE, which are part of the cytochrome bc
