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

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a leading cause of death among infectious diseases globally, necessitating new drug discovery due to rising drug-resistant strains. Homoisoflavones, a distinct subgroup of flavonoids characterized by their 3-benzylidenechroman-4-one skeleton, are promising natural products for new antimicrobials. This study explored 42 homoisoflavone derivatives as potential anti-TB agents. Several derivatives showed potent anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) activity. Specifically, derivatives 19, 22, and 41 show good selectivity index and significantly inhibited the Mtb H37Rv strain (MIC
