Evaluation of the GenoType Mycobacterium CM/AS Assay for Species Identification of Mycobacteria.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe early differentiation of
aimTo evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the GenoType Mycobacterium CM/AS assay for the species identification of mycobacteria in the culture isolates in comparison with conventional phenotypic and biochemical methods. MATERIAL AND
methodsA total of 160 mycobacterial isolates on solid Lowenstein-Jensen media or liquid MGIT 960 were subjected to species identification by GenoType Mycobacterium CM/AS assay and biochemical methods.
resultsSensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive Value (NPV) were found to be 100% for all the mycobacterialisolates except
conclusionThe GenoType assay is a simple, rapid and reliable method for the identification of clinically important mycobacteria, and it is well suited for use in a routine laboratory.
