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
Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are among the most important pathogens in wild, captive, marine, and freshwater fish species. So, it is important to consider fish as the primary source of infection for aquarium fish and humans. The present study analyzed the occurrence of NTM in aquarium fish in Ilam, west of Iran. In total, 50 samples of infected fish were collected from different aquariums. Following initial sample processing, sediment of each sample was inoculated into Lowenstein-Jensen and Herrold egg media. The positive colonies were investigated with, growth rate, pigmentation, colony morphology, niacin accumulation, nitrate reduction, catalase activity, urease activity, and arylsulfatase activity. Also, molecular identification was carried out by sequencing of heat shock protein 65 kD gene (
