Alternative approaches utilizing click chemistry to develop next-generation analogs of solithromycin.
Article in European journal of medicinal chemistry, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 marked rise in bacterial drug resistance has created an urgent need for novel antibacterials belonging to new drug classes and ideally possessing new mechanisms of action. The superior biological activity of solithromycin against streptococci and other bacteria causative of community-acquired pneumonia pathogens, compared to telithromycin and other macrolides encouraged us to extensively explore this class of antibiotics. We, thus, present the design and synthesis of a novel series of solithromycin analogs. Three main strategies were pursued in structure-activity relationship studies covering the N-11 side chain and the desosamine motif, which are both chief elements for establishing strong interactions with the bacterial ribosome as the molecular target. Minimal inhibitory concentration assays were determined to assess the in vitro potency of the various analogs in relation to solithromycin. Two analogs exhibited improved activity compared to solithromycin against resistant strains, which can be assessed in further pre-clinical studies.
