Antimicrobial activity of prulifloxacin tested against a worldwide collection of gastroenteritis-producing pathogens, including those causing traveler's diarrhea.
Article in Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Prulifloxacin, the prodrug of ulifloxacin (active component), is a newer fluoroquinolone with broad activity against enteric and nonenteric gram-negative bacilli. Ulifloxacin and other oral comparator agents were tested for activity against 582 gastroenteritis strains from global surveillance studies. Ulifloxacin was highly active against Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., Yersinia spp., Vibrio spp., Aeromonas spp., and Plesiomonas spp. (MIC(50)s and MIC(90)s, <or=0.03 microg/ml and <or=0.06 microg/ml, respectively). Only rare Aeromonas spp., Campylobacter spp., and E. coli displayed elevated MIC results (>or=4 microg/ml). Ciprofloxacin exhibited similar activity but was two- to fourfold less potent. Presently approved for clinical use in certain European countries and Japan, ulifloxacin was the most active of the antimicrobial agents tested against these gastroenteritis-causing pathogens.
