Article in Frontiers in tuberculosis, 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
Background: Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), caused by Methods: We compared the yeast-drop methodology with the standard method commonly used in Results: Flies treated with the "yeast-drop" method showed a significant improvement in survival probability and a reduction in colony-forming units (CFUs) compared to non-treated flies. This was comparable to the results achieved with the standard feeding method. Among the compounds tested, linezolid proved to be the most effective antibiotic. HDTs such as aspirin, metformin, and simvastatin also enhanced survival rates and reduced CFUs following treatment, demonstrating conserved immune and metabolic mechanisms between flies and mammals. Similarly, BBH7 and ethoxzolamide, which act as anti-virulence agents, further reinforce the translational value of this type of treatment in the Conclusion: Overall, the
