Hierarchical integration of mNGS, PCR, and other conventional methods for precision TB diagnostics.
Article in Microbiology spectrum, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This study systematically compared the diagnostic accuracy of seven assays for detecting the IMPORTANCE: This study is the first to comprehensively evaluate the diagnostic efficacy, cost-effectiveness, and timeliness of seven TB detection methods in a single-center cohort. Our findings provide actionable solutions for optimizing TB diagnostics in diverse healthcare ecosystems, aligning with the WHO's End TB Strategy to ensure equitable access to rapid diagnostics.
