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 prevention and treatment of biofilm-mediated infections remains an unmet clinical need for medical devices. With the increasing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant infections, it is important that novel approaches are developed to prevent biofilms forming on implantable medical devices. This study presents a versatile and simple polydopamine surface coating technique for medical devices, using a new class of antibiotics-antimicrobial peptidomimetics. Their unique mechanism of action primes them for activity against antibiotic-resistant bacteria and makes them suitable for covalent attachment to medical devices. This study assesses the anti-biofilm activity of peptidomimetics, characterises the surface chemistry of peptidomimetic coatings, quantifies the antibacterial activity of coated surfaces and assesses the biocompatibility of these coated materials. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and water contact angle measurements were used to confirm the chemical modification of coated surfaces. The antibacterial activity of surfaces was quantified for
