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

Cell wall biosynthesis inhibitors (CBIs) have historically been one of the most effective classes of antibiotics. They are the most extensively used class of antibiotics and their importance is exemplified by the β-lactams and glycopeptide antibiotics. However, this class of antibiotics has not received impunity from resistance development. In the wake of this predicament, this review presents the progress of CBIs, especially glycopeptide derivatives as antibiotics to confront antibacterial resistance. The various strategies used for the development of CBIs, their clinical status and possible directions in which this field can evolve have also been discussed.
