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

Tuberculosis (TB) is common among persons living with HIV. This public health concern is aggravated by infection with multidrug-resistant organisms and adverse effects of polypharmacy. There are few published cases of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in multidrug-resistant HIV (MDR-HIV) infected patients. We report a case of a 29-year-old Filipino man with HIV on zidovudine (AZT)-containing antiretroviral therapy (ART) but was eventually shifted to tenofovir due to anaemia. He presented with left flank tenderness, which was found to be due to an MDR-TB psoas abscess, and for which second-line anti-TB treatment was started. HIV genotyping showed MDR-HIV infection susceptible only to AZT, protease inhibitors and integrase inhibitors. Subsequently, he developed neck abscess that grew
