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

Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a unique frontline drug for shortening tuberculosis (TB) treatment, but its mechanisms of action are elusive. We previously found one PZA-resistant strain that harbors an alanine deletion at position 438 (Δ438A) in RpsA, a target of PZA associated with PZA resistance, but its role in causing PZA resistance has been inconclusive. Here, we introduced the RpsA Δ438A mutation along with the D123A mutation into the
