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

Bacterial gene expression from sites of infection are poorly studied due to low levels of bacterial mRNA present in clinical samples. Here, we develop Transcript-Capture Seq, which uses customizable biotinylated probes generated in-house to enrich bacteria-specific RNA from host samples before Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). This method results in a >200-fold increase in bacterial mRNA reads from mixed samples and allows analysis of the complete bacterial transcriptome from clinical samples. We apply Transcript-Capture to models of tuberculosis (TB) infection as well as sputum samples from TB patients. TB patients exhibit unexplained heterogeneity in disease progression, and the activity of
