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

The clinical development and regulatory approval of bedaquiline, delamanid and pretomanid over the last decade brought about significant progress in the management of drug-resistant tuberculosis, providing all-oral regimens with favorable safety profiles. The Nix-TB and ZeNix trials of a bedaquiline - pretomanid - linezolid regimen demonstrated for the first time that certain forms of drug-resistant tuberculosis can be cured in the majority of patients within 6 months. Ongoing Phase 3 studies containing these drugs may further advance optimized regimen compositions. Investigational drugs in clinical development that target clinically validated mechanisms, such as second generation oxazolidinones (sutezolid, delpazolid, TBI-223) and diarylquinolines (TBAJ-876 and TBAJ-587) promise improved potency and/or safety compared to the first-in-class drugs. Compounds with novel targets involved in diverse bacterial functions such as cell wall synthesis (DrpE1, MmpL3), electron transport, DNA synthesis (GyrB), cholesterol metabolism and transcriptional regulation of ethionamide bioactivation pathways have advanced to early clinical studies with the potential to enhance antibacterial activity when added to new or established anti-TB drug regimens. Clinical validation of preclinical
