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

The antimicrobial activity of 3-methyl-5-isopropyl (or ethyl) 6-methyl-4-nitrophenyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate derivatives was evaluated. Prokaryotes (bacteria) appeared to be more sensitive to their antimicrobial activity than were eukaryotes (filamentous fungi). The best antibacterial activity was shown by derivative 33, which was able to inhibit the growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis (MIC33 = 9 μg.ml(-1)), Staphylococcus aureus (MIC33 = 25 μg.ml(-1)), and Escherichia coli (MIC33 = 100 μg.ml(-1)). In addition, derivative 4 demonstrated its antibacterial power on the acid-fast bacterial species M. smegmatis and on Gram-positive S. aureus. Focusing on the structure-activity relationship, it appears that the increase in the substituent bulk at the C2 position improved the antibacterial activity of the set of compounds studied. Derivatives 33 and 4, carrying 2-cyano-3-oxo-3-phenylprop-1-en-1-yl and allyliminomethyl groups, respectively, showed significantly higher inhibition activities on all tested microorganisms in comparison with the rest of the derivatives. This enhancement was also in good correlation with different log P values (lipophilicity parameter).
