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

backgroundIncreasing drug resistance is an important factor in the complexity of tuberculosis (TB) control. The identification of disease transmission type, recurrence of a previous infection, or new transmission of the disease is the key factor in the control of TB. In this study, we aimed to identify the genetic diversity of drug-resistant MATERIALS AND

methodsOf 300 isolates obtained from a variety of clinical specimens, 18 drug-resistance

resultsThe highest percentage of isolates, 38.8%, belonged to the East-Asian lineage (lineage 2), while the lineages Indo-Oceanic (lineage 1), East-African-Indian (lineage 3), and Euro-American (lineage 4) represented 5.5%, 22.2%, and 33.3%, respectively. Among the 33.3% (6/18) Euro-American strains, the Latin American- Mediterranean and Ural sub-lineage were 22.2% (4/18) and 11.1% (2/18), respectively.

conclusionThe results of this study show that the lineages of drug-resistant
