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
Multi-drug resistant tuberculosis still remains a major public health crisis globally. With the emergence of newer active tuberculosis disease, the requirement of prolonged treatment time and adherence to therapy till its completion necessitates the search of newer therapeutics, targeting human host factors. The current work utilized statistical meta-analysis of human gene transcriptomes of active pulmonary tuberculosis disease obtained from six public datasets. The meta-analysis resulted in the identification of 2038 significantly differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the active tuberculosis disease. The gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed that these genes were major contributors in immune responses. The pathway enrichment analyses identified from various human canonical pathways are related to other infectious diseases. In addition, the comparison of the DEGs with the tuberculosis genome wide association study (GWAS) datasets revealed the presence of few genetic variants in their proximity. The analysis of protein interaction networks (human and
