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

A stereoselective synthesis has been developed to provide all four side-chain stereoisomers of difluoroindanediol 2, the mixture of which was previously identified as an inhibitor of the o-succinylbenzoate-CoA synthetase MenE in bacterial menaquinone biosynthesis, having promising in vitro activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Only the (1R,3S)-diastereomer inhibited the biochemical activity of MenE, consistent with computational docking studies, and this diastereomer also exhibited in vitro antibacterial activity comparable to that of the mixture. However, mechanism-of-action studies suggest that this inhibitor and its diastereomers may act via other mechanisms beyond inhibition of menaquinone biosynthesis.
