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

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is the leading infectious cause of death globally. Although effective treatments are available, treatment length, drug toxicity, and the emergence of drug-resistant strains have challenged TB control efforts. Current clinical trials are focused on developing shorter, safer, and more effective regimens that incorporate both new and repurposed agents for the treatment of TB. This narrative review provides an overview of current and emerging treatment options for drug-susceptible, drug-resistant, and latent TB based on recent clinical trials and WHO guidelines.
