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

One approach to overcome the antimicrobial resistance of many pathogens is to associate compounds with antimicrobial properties and obtain combinations superior compared to the effect of each compound. To identify a possible potentiating effect, we tested and analyzed the inhibitory effect of the combination of coumarin with two pyrazole derivatives, 1,1'-methandiylbis (3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole (AM4) and 3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl) methanol 3,5-dimethyl-1-hydroxymethylpyrazol (SAM4). A clear synergistic effect was recorded when coumarin was associated with SAM4, in which case the Fractional Inhibitory Concentration Index (FICI) had a value equal to 0.468 for Citrobacter freundii, Proteus mirabilis, and E. coli. In the other cases, however, both the association between coumarin and AM4 and coumarin SAM4 had only an additive effect (FICI = 0.937-1.00). The bactericidal effect of the coumarin-pyrazole combination over time was better in all cases compared to the effect of the compounds used separately. The viability of the bacterial cells at sub-inhibitory concentrations of the tested compounds was variable, depending on both the type of compound and the bacterial strain.
