Determination of antibiotic resistance and high-performance liquid chromatography profiles for Mycobacterium species.
Article in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundIncidence of mycobacterial infections has been increasing. However, diagnosis and treatment of mycobacterial infections can be difficult. The aim of this study was to investigate high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of the mycolic acids for rapid identification and dendrogram cluster analysis of mycobacterium species.
methodsClinical specimens received for mycobacterial culture and antimicrobial susceptibility test were processed by standard laboratory protocols. Positive cultures were analyzed with HPLC method. Mycolic acid analysis with HPLC was used for diagnosis of tuberculosis and other mycobacterial infections. These reports were compared with Sherlock Library mycobacterial species, and the similarity index was analyzed. This value was formed by a software in multidimensional space that was the calculation of the average distance between the nearest library profile and unknown profile.
resultsThe ninety-two samples were identified as M. tuberculosis. (similarity index between 0.593 and 0.994). One of the other strains was identified as M. avium intracellulare (strain No. 82) (SI = 0.906); one of them was identified as M. interjectum (strain no. 89) (SI = 0.644). Total 94 samples were identified, and dendrogram was applied to these samples. Profile A (10.6%), profile B (59.6%), profile C (11.7%), profile D (3.2%), and other profiles as single different profiles were identified. Rates for each as 1% (89, 94, 1, 82, 26, 42, 32, 41, 100, 43, 47, 44, 40, 35).
conclusionHigh-performance liquid chromatography is a useful, rapid, reliable, and practical method for diagnosis of mycobacterium species.
