First Indonesian report of WGS-based MTBC L3 discovery.
Article in BMC research notes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveRecent spoligotyping results in the island nation of Indonesia had revealed the existence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex lineage 3 (MTBC L3) or Central Asian (CAS) strains. In this work, whole-genome sequencing (WGS) - based methods were used to search for the presence of MTBC L3.
resultsTwo unrelated Indonesian L3 strains discovered by WGS-based SNP phylogenomics are presented here for the first time. Assemblies of their genomes yielded 96.95% (MTBC strain Mtb_S6970) and 98.35% (Mtb_S19106) of the known reference strain H37Rv. Their respective constructed genome coverages are 45.38 ± 12.95x and 63.13 ± 21.10x. The two L3 genomes have 4062 and 4121 genes, respectively, which are well within the number of genes predicted in MTBC strains. Instead of having three rRNA genes usually, Mtb_S6970 possesses four. These L3 isolates exhibit cross-class antibiotic susceptibility. FadD26, fadE24, fbpA, lprO, and panC, which are thought to be important in the pathophysiology of MTBC, were discovered to have 3-7 times more loci in L3 than L2 or L4. The penetration of L3 in the nation, despite its antibiotic sensitivity, is a concerning indicator of borderless global spread that may eventually be overcome by the phenotypes of acquired drug resistance.
