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

Microbial infections have become a global threat to drug-tolerant phenomena due to their biofilm formatting capacity. In many cases, conventional antimicrobial drugs fail to combat the infection, thus necessitating the discovery of some alternative medicine. Over several decades, plant metabolites have played a critical role in treating a broad spectrum of microbial infections due to its low cytotoxicity. Andrograpanin, a secondary metabolite, is a diterpenoid present in the leaf of Andrographis paniculata. In this study, andrograpanin (0.15 mM) exhibited significant inhibition on biofilm production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the presence of gentamicin (0.0084 mM). The impaired production of extracellular polymeric substances and several virulence factors of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were investigated to understand the mechanism of action mediated by andrograpanin. The structural alteration of biofilm was evaluated by using fluorescence microscopy, atomic force microscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy. The in silico molecular simulation studies predicted interaction of andrograpanin with quorum sensing proteins such as RhlI, LasI, LasR, and swarming motility protein BswR of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Overall the studies indicate that andrograpanin could be used as a therapeutic molecule against biofilm development by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
