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

Lantibiotics are ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified antimicrobial peptides containing thioether rings. In addition to these cross-links, the clinical candidate lantibiotic NAI-107 also possesses a C-terminal S-[(Z)-2-aminovinyl]-d-cysteine (AviCys) and a unique 5-chloro-l-tryptophan (ClTrp) moiety linked to its potent bioactivity. Bioinformatic and genetic analyses on the NAI-107 biosynthetic gene cluster identified mibH and mibD as genes encoding flavoenzymes responsible for the formation of ClTrp and AviCys, respectively. The biochemical basis for the installation of these modifications on NAI-107 and the substrate specificity of either enzyme is currently unknown. Using a combination of mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography, and bioinformatic analyses, we demonstrate that MibD is an FAD-dependent Cys decarboxylase and that MibH is an FADH
