Rapid detection of fluoroquinolone resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis using a novel multienzyme isothermal rapid assay.
Article in The Journal of antibiotics, 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
Simple, rapid, and accurate detection of Fluoroquinolone (FQ) resistance is essential for early initiation of appropriate anti-tuberculosis treatment regimen among rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB). In this study, we developed a new assay, which combines multienzyme isothermal rapid amplification and a lateral flow strip (MIRA-LF), to identify the mutations on codons 90 and 94 of gyrA for detecting levofloxacin (LFX) resistance. Compared to conventional phenotypic drug susceptibility testing, the new assay detected fluoroquinolone resistance with a sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 92.4%, 98.5%, and 96.5%, respectively. Thus, these characteristics of the newly developed MIRA-LF assay make it particularly useful and accurate for detecting FQ resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis in resource-limited condition.
