Laboratory tests and analysis of drug resistance in non-tuberculous mycobacteria.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: This study analyzed the laboratory diagnosis results and drug resistance of patients infected with Methods: We collected information on patients with positive indicators of NTM infection at the Henan Provincial Chest Hospital from 2020 to 2022. Acid-fast smear, mycobacterium culture, QB-SPOT assay, GeneXpert MTB/RIF assay, immunoglobulin E test, tuberculosis antibody test, and microplate method for drug sensitivity test were analyzed using strain identification as the gold standard. Results: The 242 cases of NTM infection were predominantly detected with slow-growing Conclusion: The NTM species isolated by the Henan Provincial Chest Hospital is dominated by
