Lipid-A-dependent and cholesterol-dependent dynamics properties of liposomes from gram-negative bacteria in ESKAPE.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
AntiMicrobial Resistance (AMR) is a worldwide health emergency. ESKAPE pathogens include the most relevant AMR bacterial families. In particular, Gram-negative bacteria stand out due to their cell envelope complexity which exhibits strong resistance to antimicrobials. A key element for AMR is the chemical structure of lipid A, modulating the physico-chemical properties of the membrane and permeability to antibiotics. Liposomes are used as models of bacterial membrane infective vesicles. In this work, coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations were used to model liposomes from ESKAPE Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). We captured the role of lipid A, cardiolipin and cholesterol on liposome morphology and physico-chemical properties. Additionally, the reported antimicrobial peptides Cecropin B1, JB95, and PTCDA1-kf, were used to unveil their implications on membrane disruption. This study opens a promising starting point to understand molecular keys of bacterial membranes and to promote the discovery of new antimicrobials to overcome AMR.
