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

Antibiotic resistance has emerged as one of the biggest public health concerns all over the world. In an effort to combat bacterial infections, a series of imidazolidine-4-one derivatives with potent and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and low rates of drug resistance were developed by mimicking the salient physiochemical features of host defense peptides. These small molecules displayed potent activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria including several multidrug-resistant bacteria strains. Meanwhile, time-kill kinetics and drug resistance studies suggested that the most potent compound
