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

The intracellular growth and susceptibilities to killing by H2O2 in cultured human monocytes of a number of mycobacterial species including laboratory strains and clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) and a clinical isolate of Mycobacterium avium-M. intracellulare were examined. The clinical isolate of M. avium-M. intracellulare did not replicate in freshly explanted monocytes (generation time of >400 h); BCG replicated with a generation time of 95 h, and M. tuberculosis strains CDC551, H37Rv, and H37Ra replicated with generation times of 24, 35, and 37 h, respectively, during the 4-day growth assay. When cultured in monocytes for 4 days, the mycobacteria were variably sensitive to H2O2-induced killing. A positive correlation between the generation time and percent killing of intracellular bacilli was observed. By comparison, mycobacterial strains were similarly sensitive to H2O2 treatment in cell-free culture media and in sonicated cell suspensions. Using a number of inhibitors of reactive oxygen intermediates we determined that other than catalase the inhibitors tested did not affect H2O2-induced killing of intracellular mycobacteria. Our studies suggest that the killing of mycobacteria growing in human monocytes in vitro by the addition of exogenous H2O2 is dependent on the susceptibility to a peroxide-induced killing pathway as well as on the intracellular growth rate of the mycobacteria.
