Levofloxacin activity at increasing doses in a murine model of fluoroquinolone-susceptible and -resistant tuberculosis.
Article in Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
High-dose levofloxacin was explored in a clinical trial against multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and failed to show increased efficacy. In this study, we used a murine model to explore the efficacy of a dose increase in levofloxacin monotherapy beyond the maximum dose evaluated in humans. A total of 120 4-week-old female BALB/c mice were intravenously infected with 10
