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 (MABS) is the most pathogenic and drug-resistant rapidly growing mycobacteria. However, studies on MABS epidemiology, especially those focusing on subspecies level, are scarce. We aimed to determine MABS subspecies distribution and its correlation with phenotypic and genotypic antibiotic profiles. A retrospective multicenter study of 96 clinical MABS isolates in Madrid between 2016 to 2021 was conducted. Identification at the subspecies level and resistance to macrolides and aminoglycosides were performed by the GenoType NTM-DR assay. The MICs of 11 antimicrobials tested against MABS isolates were determined using the broth microdilution method (RAPMYCOI Sensititer titration plates). Clinical isolates included 50 (52.1%) MABS subsp.
