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

introductionThe incidence of laryngeal tuberculosis has increased gradually in recent years. Laryngeal tuberculosis has strong infectivity and atypical clinical manifestations. Hence, establishing the early diagnosis of laryngeal tuberculosis is considered difficult, resulting in the high rate of misdiagnosis of laryngeal tuberculosis and increased rates of tuberculosis infection.

objectiveThis study aimed to describe a case of laryngeal tuberculosis detected using the mycobacteria gene chips technology, facilitating the early diagnosis and the treatment of laryngeal tuberculosis. CASE PRESENTATION: A 27-year-old woman presented with a 7-day history of hoarseness, with a normal routine blood chemistry test and chest computed tomography results. Histological analysis of the vocal cord biopsy showed granulomatous inflammation and the negative acid-fast stain test. The mycobacteria gene chips method was used to directly examine the vocal cord tissue treated with homogenate, and the

conclusionsMycobacterial identification on homogenised biopsy using the mycobacteria gene chips method significantly facilitates the early diagnosis and the treatment of tuberculosis.
