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: Tuberculosis remains a major public health concern in China, with varying prevalence and drug resistance profiles across regions. This study explores the genetic diversity and drug-resistant profiles of MTB strains in Hinggan League, a high TB burden in Inner Mongolia, China. Methods: This population-based retrospective study, encompassing all culture-positive TB cases from Jun. 2021 to Jun. 2023 in Hinggan League. Drug resistant profiles and genetic diversity of MTB strains were assessed using phenotypic drug susceptibility testing and whole-genome sequencing. Risk factors associated with drug resistance were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression models. Results: A total of 211 MTB strains were recovered successfully and included into final analysis. Lineage 2.2.1 (88.6%, 187/211) was the dominant sub-lineage, followed by lineage 4.5 (7.1%, 15/211) and lineage 4.4 (4.3%, 9/211). MTB strains exhibited the highest resistance rates to isoniazid (16.1%, 34/211), followed by rifampicin (10.0, 21/211). In addition, the MTB strains also showed relatively high rates of resistance against new and repurposed anti-TB drugs, with resistant rates of 2.4% (5/211) to delamanid and 1.9% (4/211) to bedaquiline. Overall, 25.6% (54/211) of MTB strains were DR-TB, and 14 MTB strains met the definition of MDR-TB, including 7 strains of simple-MDR-TB, 5 of pre-XDR-TB, and 2 of XDR-TB. Genetic analysis revealed that the dominant mutations of isoniazid-, rifampin-, ethambutol-, levofloxacin-/moxifloxacin-, and ethionamide- resistance were Conclusion: Our study offers crucial insights into the genetic diversity and drug-resistant profiles of TB strains circulating in Hinggan League. These findings are valuable for DR-TB surveillance and for guiding treatment regimens and public health interventions in the region.
