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 ESKAPE pathogens comprise a group of multidrug-resistant bacteria that are the leading cause of nosocomial infections worldwide. The prevalence of antibiotic resistant strains and the relative ease by which bacteria acquire resistance genes highlight the continual need for the development of novel antibiotics against new drug targets. The methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway is an attractive target for the development of new antibiotics. The MEP pathway governs the synthesis of isoprenoids, which are key lipid precursors for vital cell components such as ubiquinone and bacterial hopanoids. Additionally, the MEP pathway is entirely distinct from the corresponding mammalian pathway, the mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway, making the first committed enzyme of the MEP pathway, 1-deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase (IspC), an attractive target for antibiotic development. To facilitate drug development against two of the ESKAPE pathogens,
