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

The emerging threat of infections caused by highly drug-resistant bacteria has prompted a resurgence in the use of the lipodecapeptide antibiotics polymyxin B and colistin as last resort therapies. Given the emergence of resistance to these drugs, there has also been a renewed interest in the development of next generation polymyxins with improved therapeutic indices and spectra of action. We report structure-activity studies of 36 polymyxin lipononapeptides structurally characterised by an exocyclic FA-Thr²-Dab³ lipodipeptide motif instead of the native FA-Dab¹-Thr²-Dab³ tripeptide motif found in polymyxin B, removing one of the positively charged residues believed to contribute to nephrotoxicity. The compounds were prepared by solid phase synthesis using an on-resin cyclisation approach, varying the fatty acid and the residues at position 2 (P2), P3 and P4, then assessing antimicrobial potency against a panel of Gram-negative bacteria, including polymyxin-resistant strains.
