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

Fluoroquinolone drugs such as moxifloxacin kill bacteria by stabilizing the normally transient double-stranded DNA breaks created by bacterial type IIA topoisomerases. Previous crystal structures of Staphylococcus aureus DNA gyrase with asymmetric DNAs have had static disorder (with the DNA duplex observed in two orientations related by the pseudo-twofold axis of the complex). Here, 20-base-pair DNA homoduplexes were used to obtain crystals of covalent DNA-cleavage complexes of S. aureus DNA gyrase. Crystals with QPT-1, moxifloxacin or etoposide diffracted to between 2.45 and 3.15 Å resolution. A G/T mismatch introduced at the ends of the DNA duplexes facilitated the crystallization of slightly asymmetric complexes of the inherently flexible DNA-cleavage complexes.
