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 discovery of new antimicrobials is the prime target in the fight against antimicrobial resistance. The continuous search for new lead compounds from bacteria of untapped and extreme ecosystems such as mangroves is currently being undertaken. This study describes the metabolite profiling of the Streptomyces euryhalinus culture extract. Previously, Streptomyces euryhalinus was isolated from the mangrove forest of Indian Sundarbans as a novel microorganism. The antimicrobial mechanism of action of Streptomyces euryhalinus culture extract against bacteria and fungi has been analyzed in this study. The gas chromatography-mass spectrometry profile of the ethyl acetate extract bacterial culture displayed the presence of several bioactive compounds with antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant properties. The bacterial extract showed significant antimicrobial activity in terms of zone of inhibition, minimum inhibitory concentration, minimum bactericidal concentration, and minimum fungicidal concentration. Moreover, substantial capacity to alter or damage the inner membrane as well as the outer membrane of the gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria was exhibited by the bacterial extract. This membrane alteration or damaging potential of the extract is the mechanism of action. Biofilm formation inhibition property of the extract also signified its antimicrobial action, and possible use against resistant bacteria. The extract has shown notable activity against the virulence factors like prevention of hemolysis in bacteria and inhibition of secreted aspartyl proteinase in fungi. These functions of the bacterial extract have revealed the extent of its action in the prevention of infection by terminating the secretory virulence factors and by damaging the tissue.
