Combined Detection of IFN-γ and Lymphocyte Subsets with Activation Indicators in the Clinical Application of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Infection at Different Times.
Article in Current microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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 immune status of mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection is essential for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. In this work, we aim to evaluate the clinical significance of the combination of serum IFN-γ, IGRAs (Interferon-Gamma Release Assay), lymphocyte subset with activation indicators detection in active and latent tuberculosis infection patients. For this study, anticoagulant whole blood were collected from 45 active tuberculosis (AT group), 44 latent tuberculosis (LT group) and 32 healthy controls (HCs group). The serum IFN-γ and IGRAs detected by chemiluminescence, and the percentage of lymphocyte subsets and activated lymphocytes detected by flow cytometry. The results showed combined IGRAs, serum IFN-γ and NKT cells not only has good diagnostic efficiency for the AT, but also provides a laboratory diagnostic method to distinguish AT from LT.
