Challenges in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Mycobacterium abscessus Infections.
Review in Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MABC) includes non-tuberculous mycobacteria that are widely distributed and clinically significant. Similar to tuberculosis, MABC can lead to skin and soft tissue infections and pulmonary diseases. These infections frequently occur in outbreaks, particularly among immunocompromised patients or those with preexisting pulmonary conditions. This review examines the recent progress in essential areas that define these infections as a significant challenge in medical practice, specifically the diagnostic modalities, antibiotic treatment options, and resistance of MABC to antibiotics and biocides.
