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

We used a mouse peritonitis model to evaluate the in vivo efficacy of telithromycin (HMR 3647) (TEL) and erythromycin (ERY) against four strains of Enterococcus faecalis and three strains of Enterococcus faecium with differing susceptibilities to TEL. TEL was highly active in vivo against Ery-susceptible (Ery(s)) and -intermediate (Ery(i)) strains (MIC of TEL = 0.015 to 0.062 microg/ml) and showed less efficacy against Ery-resistant (Ery(r)) isolates (MIC of TEL = 4 to 16 microg/ml), although this was overcome in part by a second subcutaneous dose. Quinupristin-dalfopristin was also noted to have less efficacy against Ery(r) versus Ery(s) or Ery(i) E. faecium strains, but this difference was reduced by intravenous administration. In conclusion, TEL was more potent in vivo against enterococci than was ERY; its activity was lowered by the presence of erm(B)-mediated Ery(r).
