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.
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
objectivesThis study aims to examine the antibiotic sensitivity of
methodsA retrospective study was conducted to analyse the antibiotic sensitivity of
resultsWe classified the specimens into two categories: extra-pulmonary and pulmonary TB. Among the extra-pulmonary TB specimens, 36.5% were from body fluids, 29.2% from tissue cultures and 5.2% from body abscesses. In case of pulmonary TB, sputum samples accounted for the highest proportion of the specimens (28.6%), followed by bronchial aspirates and pleural fluid (13.2% and 5.7%, respectively). Clinical isolates from women showed higher resistance to ethambutol compared to those from men. Isoniazid showed the highest resistance pattern among all antibiotics tested (17%). Meanwhile, tissue cultures had higher resistance to Isoniazid antibiotic compared to the other specimens.
conclusionResistance to first-line TB drugs is higher in extra-pulmonary TB isolates than pulmonary isolates. Nearly one-fourth of all
