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

Background: Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections have been increasingly reported in the literature; however, isolation of both NTM and Case Summary: Here, we describe a case of a 41-year-old immunocompetent female with pulmonary tuberculosis in which Conclusion: This case study underscores the challenges in the adjudication of colonization from coinfection in mixed mycobacterial specimens. Although there are microbiological guidelines for diagnosing independent NTM infections and MTBC infections, there is an unmet need for guidance on diagnosing and treating NTM in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.
