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

Antibiotics can damage the gut microbiome, leading to serious adventitious infections and emergence of antibiotic resistant pathogens. Antibiotic inactivation in the GI tract represents a strategy to protect colonic microbiota integrity and reduce antibiotic resistance. Clinical utility of this approach was established when SYN-004 (ribaxamase), an orally-administered beta-lactamase, was demonstrated to degrade ceftriaxone in the GI tract and preserve the gut microbiome. Ribaxamase degrades penicillins and cephalosporin beta-lactams, but not carbapenems. To expand this prophylactic approach to include all classes of beta-lactam antibiotics, a novel carbapenemase, formulated for oral administration, SYN-006, was evaluated in a porcine model of antibiotic-mediated gut dysbiosis.
