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 emergence and persistence of drug-resistant tuberculosis is a major threat to global public health. Our objective was to assess the applicability of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to detect genomic markers of drug resistance and explore their association with treatment outcomes for multidrug-resistant/extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR/XDR-TB).
methodsFive electronic databases were searched for studies published in English from the year 2000 onward. Two reviewers independently conducted the article screening, relevant data extraction, and quality assessment. The data of the included studies were synthesized with a narrative method and are presented in a tabular format.
resultsThe database search identified 949 published articles and 8 studies were included. An unfavorable treatment outcome was reported for 26.6% (488/1834) of TB cases, which ranged from 9.7 to 51.3%. Death was reported in 10.5% (194/1834) of total cases. High-level fluoroquinolone resistance (due to
conclusionsWGS has a significant capacity to provide accurate and comprehensive drug resistance data for MDR/XDR-TB, which can inform personalized drug therapy to optimize treatment outcomes.
