MBX-500 is effective for treatment of Clostridium difficile infection in gnotobiotic piglets.
Article in Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2013. 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
The novel antibiotic MBX-500, dosed at 100, 200, or 400 mg/kg twice daily for 7 days, was evaluated for the treatment of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) in the gnotobiotic pig model. MBX-500 increased survival at all doses and at high doses improved clinical signs and reduced lesion severity, similar to vancomycin. Our results show that MBX-500 is an effective antibiotic for the treatment of diarrhea associated with CDI and prevents severe systemic disease.
