Detection of Isoniazid and Rifampin Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Clinical Isolates from Sputum Samples by High-Resolution Melting Analysis.

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
The effective management of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and the need for rapid and accurate screening of rifampin (RIF) and isoniazid (INH)-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) isolates are the most fundamental and difficult challenges facing the global TB control. The present study aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of high-resolution melting-curve analysis (HRMA) in comparison to multiplex allele-specific PCR (MAS-PCR) and xpert MTB/RIF as well as the conventional drug-susceptibility test (DST) and gene sequencing for the detection of INH and RIF resistance in the Mtb isolates. In the present study, a total of 431 Mtb isolates including 11 MDR (%2.55), 7 INH resistance (%1.62), two RIF resistance (%0.46), and 411 sensitive isolates were phenotypically confirmed. HRMA assay identified katG gene mutations and the mabA-inhA promoter region in 15 of 18 INH-resistant samples and rpoB gene mutations were successfully evaluated in 11 out of 13 RIF-resistant samples. The sensitivity and specificity of the HRMA method were 83.3% and 98.8% for INH and 84.6% and 99% for RIF, respectively. The most common mutation in RIF-resistance-determining region (RRDR) occurred at codon 531 (TCG → TTG)(84.6%) and then at codon 513 (CAA → GTA)(7.6%) and 526 (CAC → TAC) (7.6%), which resulted in the amino-acid changes. Also, 88.8% of INH-resistant samples had mutations in the katG gene and the mabA-inhA promoter region, of which the highest mutation occurred at codon 315 (AGC → ACC) of the katG gene. In conclusion, all these results indicated that the sensitivity and specificity of the HRM method were increased when the katG gene and the mabA-inhA promoter region were used as a target.
