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

objectivesThis study aimed to measure the prevalence of resistance to antimicrobial agents, and explore the risk factors associated with drug resistance by using nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) isolates from China.

methodsA total of 335 NTM isolates were included in our analysis. Broth dilution method was used to determine in vitro drug susceptibility of NTM isolates.

resultsClarithromycin (CLA) was the most potent drug for Mycobacterium intracellulare (MI). The resistance rate of 244 MI isolates to CLA was 21%, yielding a minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC)

conclusionsOur data demonstrate that approximate one fifth of MI isolates are resistant to CLA. We have identified a higher proportion of CLA-resistant MAA isolates than MAM. The patients caused by CLA-resistant MI are at low risk for presenting with fever relative to CLA-susceptible group.
