Simple Identification of Mycobacterial Species by Sequence-Specific Multiple Polymerase Chain Reactions.
Article in Current microbiology, 2019. 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
Several species of mycobacteria cause infections in humans. Species identification of clinical isolates of mycobacteria is very important for the decision of treatment and in choosing the appropriate treatment regimen. We have developed a multiplex PCR method that can identify practically all known species of mycobacteria, by determination of single-nucleotide differences at a total of 13 different polymorphic regions in the genes of rRNA and hsp65, in four PCR mixes. To achieve this goal, single-nucleotide differences in these polymorphic regions were used to divide mycobacterial species into two groups, than four, eight, etc., in an algorithmic manner. It was sufficient to reach single species level by evaluating 13 polymorphic regions. Evaluation of the multiplex PCR patterns by observable real-time electrophoresis (ORTE) simplified species identification. This new method may enable easy, rapid, and cost-effective identification of all species of mycobacteria.
