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

A 32-year-old woman was diagnosed as pulmonary tuberculosis 15 years ago and recurred several times due to long-term nonstandard treatment. Drug sensitivity test indicated that multidrug-resistant tuberculosis had emerged and we determined relevant therapeutic schedule according to this result. However, it didn't show any amelioration of the disease after 3-month chemotherapy. We formulated 3-course CIK immunotherapy based on patient's condition. After 3 courses of immunotherapy, we found obvious amelioration of the patient's condition. And there was no recurrence during the follow-up in the past 3 years. Therefore, we considered that the CIK immunotherapy is an effective method for tuberculosis treatment and recurrence prevention.
