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

Pretomanid (PA-824) is an important nitroimidazole antitubercular agent in late stage clinical trials. However, pretomanid is limited by poor solubility and high protein binding, which presents opportunities for improvement in its physiochemical properties. Conversely, the oxazolidinone linezolid has excellent physicochemical properties and has recently shown impressive activity for the treatment of drug resistant tuberculosis. In this study we explore if incorporation of the outer ring elements found in first and second generation oxazolidinones into the nitroimidazole core of pretomanid can be used to improve its physicochemical and antitubercular properties. The synthesis of pretomanid outer oxazolidinone ring hybrids was successfully performed producing hybrids that maintained antitubercular activity and had improved in vitro physicochemical properties. Three lead compounds were identified and evaluated in a chronic model of tuberculosis infection in mice. However, the compounds lacked efficacy suggesting that portions of PA-824 tail not found in the hybrid molecules are required for in vivo efficacy.
