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

Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are slender, non-motile, acid-fast bacilli widely distributed in diverse environmental reservoirs across the globe. In recent years, the incidence of NTM-related diseases has risen significantly, leading to their recognition as major emerging human pathogens. Cutaneous NTM infections typically arise following traumatic injury, surgical intervention, or cosmetic procedures. Due to their heterogeneous clinical presentations, these infections often pose diagnostic challenges. Löwenstein-Jensen medium and Middlebrook medium are widely employed in mycobacterial microbiology and are capable of supporting the growth of most NTM. However, their high cost and limited availability pose significant challenges for implementation in resource-limited settings (RLS). Previously, we successfully isolated a strain of
