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

backgroundTuberculosis is a serious infection that is common in people living with HIV and increases the mortality and morbidity from the diseases. The study of genetic diversity among strains of

methodA total of 143 sputum samples was collected and transported to Akililu Lemma TB laboratory. The collected samples were processed for culture using Lowenstein-Jensen medium. For 45 culture positive isolates, genotyping of mycobacterial DNA was performed by spoligotyping and isolates were assigned to families using the SpolDB4 and the model-based program 'SPOTCLUST'. Categorical data were analyzed by Chi-square test.

resultA high level of diversity was found among the 45 isolates. Twenty six different Spoligo patterns were obtained. The T (46.7%), Family33 (44.4%) and Central Asian (CAS): (4.4%) families were the dominant isolates comprising 91.5% of the total strains. Of 44% of the Euro-American, 6/20(30%) and 9/20(45%), identified were lineage belonged to Spoligo-International-Type (SIT

conclusionWe found the high diversity of Mtb in pulmonary tuberculosis patients in this setting. T
