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

backgroundAmong the resistant isolates of MTB, multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and extensively drug resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) have been the areas of growing concern. The genomic analysis showed that the respective genomic pool of the XDR-MTB proteome contains more than 30% of the hypothetical proteins for which no functions have been annotated yet. This class of proteins presumably have their own importance to complete genome and proteome information. The bioinformatics advancements have helped to annotate those hypothetical proteins by using various computational tools and have potential to classify them functionally.

objectiveThe objective of this study was to propose a new and unique drug target against the deadly Mycobacterium tuberculosis using Bioinformatics approaches to characterize the hypothetical proteins.

resultsWe stepwise reduced the hypothetical proteins (total number: 1256) out of the complete proteome to only 26 essential hypothetical proteins. Out of those 26 proteins, the protein WP_003401246.1 was computationally characterized as the druggable target.

conclusionThe study proposed a hypothetical protein from complete proteome of the XDR-MTB as a new drug target against which new drug candidates can be proposed. Hence, the study opens up the new avenues in the areas of drug discovery against deadly M. tuberculosis.
