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

Disseminated nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections usually occur in severely immunosuppressed patients. These infections may also occur in previously immunocompetent patients with acquired anti-interferon-gamma antibodies (anti-IFN-γ Abs). A previously healthy 33-year-old man presented with a 3-week history of cough and fever. Chest computed tomography showed air-space consolidation in the middle lobe of the right lung and enlargement of the supraclavicular, mediastinal, and hilar lymph nodes. Tissue samples obtained via mediastinoscopy showed granuloma formation with acid-fast bacteria; cultures from the tissue revealed
