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 emergence of multiple antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a serious global problem which requires the development of new effective antimicrobial therapeutics. Albicidin produced by the sugarcane pathogen Xanthomonas albilineans is a potent DNA gyrase inhibitor with inhibitory effects significantly better than most DNA gyrase inhibitors. Albicidin acts primarily by inhibiting the religation of the cleaved DNA intermediate during the gyrase catalytic sequence similar to quinolones. The clinical realization of albicidin has been hampered by limited production and its unsolved structure. In this review, the relationship between albicidin and sugarcane leaf-scald disease is described. Furthermore, the biosynthesis and resistance mechanisms of albicidin are discussed. Finally, recent efforts to solve the structure and produce albicidin in a heterologous host and chemically are summarized.
