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

Multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (Ab) has emerged as a leading nosocomial pathogen because of its resistance to most currently available antibiotics. Cystathionine β-lyase (CBL), a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme, catalyzes the second step in the transsulfuration pathway, which is essential for the metabolic interconversion of the sulfur-containing amino acids homocysteine and methionine. The enzymes of the transsulfuration pathway are considered to be attractive drug targets owing to their specificity to microbes and plants. As a potential target for the development of novel antibacterial drugs, the AbCBL protein was expressed, purified and crystallized. An AbCBL crystal diffracted to 1.57 Å resolution and belonged to the trigonal space group P3112, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 102.9, c = 136.5 Å. The asymmetric unit contained two monomers, with a corresponding VM of 2.3 Å(3) Da(-1) and a solvent content of 46.9%.
