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

Mycobacteria have been classified into rapid and slow growing phenotypes, but the genetic factors that underlie these growth rate differences are not well understood. We compared the genomes of 157 mycobacterial species, representing all major branches of the mycobacterial phylogenetic tree to identify genes and operons enriched among rapid and slow growing mycobacteria. Overlaying growth phenotype on a phylogenetic tree based on 304 core genes suggested that ancestral mycobacteria had a rapid growth phenotype with a single major evolutionary separation into rapid and slow growing sub-genera. We identified 293 genes enriched among rapid growing sub-genera, including genes encoding for amino acid transport/metabolism (e.g.,
