Preventative treatment with Fluorothiazinon suppressed Acinetobacter baumannii-associated septicemia in mice.
Article in The Journal of antibiotics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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 high prevalence of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as a serious problem in the treatment of nosocomial infections in the past three decades. Recently, we developed a new small-molecule inhibitor belonging to a class of 2,4-disubstituted-4H-[1,3,4]-thiadiazine-5-ones, Fluorothiazinon (FT, previously called CL-55). FT effectively suppressed the T3SS of Chlamydia spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Salmonella sp. without affecting bacterial growth in vitro. In this study, we describe that prophylactic use of FT for 4 days prior to challenge with resistant clinical isolates of A. baumannii (ABT-897-17 and 52TS19) suppressed septic infection in mice, resulting in improved survival, limited bacteraemia and decreased bacterial load in the organs of the mice. We show that FT had an inhibitory effect on A. baumannii biofilm formation in vitro and, to a greater extent, on biofilm maturation. In addition, FT inhibited Acinetobacter isolate-induced death of HeLa cells, which morphologically manifested as apoptosis. The mechanism of FT action on A. baumannii is currently being studied. FT may be a promising candidate for the development of a broad-spectrum anti-virulence drug to use in the prevention of nosocomial infections.
