1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The increasing global incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) pulmonary disease highlights the need for rapid diagnostic methods to guide timely treatment and prevent antibiotic misuse. While bacterial culture remains the gold standard for diagnosis, its extended turnaround time compromises clinical decision-making. Computed tomography (CT), with its high sensitivity for lung lesions and rapid imaging capabilities, has emerged as a critical diagnostic tool. AI-assisted CT interpretation shows particular promise for improving NTM detection, yet progress has been hindered by limited datasets due to disease rarity. We address this gap by introducing the first comprehensive CT dataset combining 430 NTM and 871 tuberculosis cases, supplemented with clinical parameters including demographics, symptoms, and mycobacterial species data. This resource aims to catalyze AI algorithm development for differential diagnosis, ultimately enhancing precision in NTM management through advanced machine learning applications.
