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 rise in antibiotic resistance among pathogenic microorganisms has created an imbalance in the drugs available for treatment, in part due to the slow development of new antibiotics. Cystic fibrosis (CF) patients are highly susceptible to antibiotic-resistant pathogens, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Phloroglucinols and related polyketide natural products have demonstrated antimicrobial activity against a number of Gram-positive bacteria including S. aureus. In this study, we investigated a series of acylated phloroglucinol derivatives to determine their potential as lead compounds for the design of novel therapeutics. To assess the activity of these compounds, we determined the minimum inhibitory and bactericidal concentration (MIC and MBC, respectively), the minimum biofilm inhibitory and biofilm eradication concentration (MBIC and MBEC, respectively), and evaluated hemolytic activity, as well as their interaction with clinically relevant antibiotics. Of the 12 compounds tested against MRSA and methicillin-susceptible strains, four showed MIC values ranging from 0.125 to 8 µg ml
