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

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are of increasing public health concern. This study aimed to determine the most relevant comorbidities of NTM in Beijing, China, over a 12-year period. A retrospective analysis was performed on all 505 NTM patients diagnosed in Beijing Chest Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2010 to December 2021. Species identification, demographic characteristics, and comorbidities were analyzed using electronic medical records. The demographic characteristics and clinical comorbidity differences between NTM and tuberculosis (TB) patients were also analyzed. The number of patients infected with NTM in Beijing, China, has increased yearly. A total of 520 NTM were isolated from 505 inpatients, but only 465 were identified to the species level.
