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

Antimicrobial resistance issues have risen dramatically in recent years, posing a severe concern to humans worldwide. The urgent need to find novel compounds for pharmaceutical applications prompts the research of under-explored environments such as marine ecosystems. The present study was designed to discover novel secondary metabolites, and we have isolated about 30 actinomycetes from the marine soil samples collected in Thondi (Ramanathapuram, Tamil Nadu, India), where most isolates are associated with the genus Streptomyces. Out of 30, one potentially active strain (Streptomyces sp. SRMA3) was identified using primary and secondary screening methods against the drug-resistant clinical pathogens. The active metabolites extracted from the selected active isolate were subjected to partial purification and characterization using Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR) and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) analysis. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value was determined for the active metabolite. Further, the partially purified active fraction was revealed for its antibacterial and antibiofilm activity against drug-resistant clinical pathogens. Light and fluorescence microscopy detected the viability and adhesion of the biofilm-forming drug-resistant pathogens. Growth curve analysis showed that the active metabolite has the potential to inhibit drug-resistant pathogens. The synergistic effect of active metabolite with commercial antibiotics also revealed that it could enhance the activity of antibiotics in antimicrobial resistance pathogens. This study shows that the isolated Streptomyces sp. SRMA3 is a potentially active strain, and the metabolite derived from this strain has a good antibacterial and antibiofilm activity against antimicrobially resistant clinical pathogens and could be used for various biotechnological applications.
