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
We aimed to investigate the effect of interval between food intake and drug administration at fasting condition on the plasma concentrations of first-line anti- tuberculosis (TB) drugs in Chinese population. Newly diagnosed TB patients administered the anti-TB drugs under fasting conditions orally, and then had prepared breakfast at 30 minutes and 120 min after dosing, respectively. Blood sampling was also performed 120 minutes after dosing for the detection of Cmax purpose. Overall, twenty-five participants were included in our analysis. The Cmaxs of 30 minutes interval and 120 minutes interval were 21.8 ± 2.0 and 19.2 ± 2.0 μg/mL for rifampin, 1.6 ± 0.2 and 2.1 ± 0.2 μg/mL for isoniazid (INH), 1.5 ± 0.1and 1.5 ± 0.2 μg/mL for ethambutol (EMB), and 49.2 ± 3.7 and 41.5 ± 3.9 μg/mL for pyrazinamide, respectively. Statistical analysis revealed that there was no statistical difference between 2 groups. Additionally, 88.0% and 72.0% of the 25 participants at 2-hour interval group had peak concentrations less than the lower limit of the reference range for INH and EMB, respectively. The Cmaxs of INH were 0.9 ± 0.4 μg/ml for rapid acetylator, which was significantly lower than those of intermediate (1.4 ± 1.0 μg/mL), and slow acetylator (2.5 ± 1.0 μg/mL), respectively (P < .01). In conclusion, our data demonstrate that early food intake at 30 minutes after drug administration had no significant influence on the plasma concentrations. In addition, a high proportion of patients receiving first-line anti-TB regimen fail to achieve the expected plasma drug ranges of INH and EMB (P > .05).
