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

Mycobacterium abscessus has emerged as a successful pathogen owing to its intrinsic drug resistance. Macrolide and lincosamide antibiotics share overlapping binding sites within the ribosome and common resistance pathways. Nevertheless, while M. abscessus is initially susceptible to macrolides, they are completely resistant to the lincosamide antibiotics. Here, we have used RNA sequencing to determine the changes in gene expression in M. abscessus upon exposure to the lincosamide, clindamycin (CLY). We show that
