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

Mupirocin is a commercially available antibiotic that acts on bacterial isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis and preventing bacterial infection. An in vitro glycosylation approach was applied to synthesize glycoside derivatives of mupirocin using different NDP-sugars and glycosyltransferase from Bacillus licheniformis. Ultra pressure liquid chromatography-photo diode array analyses of the reaction mixtures revealed the generation of product peak(s). The results were further supported by high-resolution quadruple time of flight electrospray ionization mass spectrometry analyses. The product purified from the reaction mixture with UDP-D-glucose was subjected to NMR analysis, and the structure was determined to be mupirocin 6-O-β-D-glucoside. Other glycoside analogs of mupirocin were determined based on high-resolution mass analyses. Antibacterial activity assays against Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated complete loss of antibacterial activity after glucosylation of mupirocin at the 6-hydroxyl position.
