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

A novel series of copper-activatable drugs intended for use against methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) were synthesized, characterized, and tested against the MSSA strain Newman and the MRSA Lac strain (a USA300 strain), respectively. These drugs feature an NNSN structural motif, which enables the binding of copper. In the absence of copper, no activity against MSSA and MRSA at realistic drug concentrations was observed. Although none of the novel drug candidates exhibits a stereocenter, sub-micromolar activities against SA Newman and micromolar activities against SA Lac were observed in the presence, but not in the absence, of bioavailable copper. Copper influx is a component of cellular response to bacterial infections, which is often described as nutritional immunity.
