Effectiveness of mass spectrometry and genomic analysis in the surveillance of nontuberculous
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are diverse, and species-level identification remains challenging in routine diagnostics. We analyzed NTM isolates collected at three regional centers of the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) from 2019 to 2024 to assess geographic variation and identification performance after implementation of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Among 3,188 cases meeting the microbiological criteria for probable pulmonary NTM disease, the species distribution differed by region:
