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

Small molecule target identification is a critical step in modern antibacterial drug discovery, particularly against multi-drug resistant pathogens. Albocycline (ALB) is a macrolactone natural product with potent activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA) whose mechanism of action has been elusive to date. Herein, we report biochemical and genomic studies that reveal ALB does not target bacterial peptidoglycan biosynthesis or the ribosome; rather, it appears to modulate NADPH ratios and upregulate redox sensing in the cell consistent with previous studies at Upjohn. Owing to the complexity inherent in biological pathways, further genomic assays are needed to identify the true molecular target(s) of albocycline.
