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

With the discovery of antibiotics, a productive period of antibacterial drug innovation and application in healthcare systems and agriculture resulted in saving millions of lives. Unfortunately, the misusage of antibiotics led to the emergence of many resistant pathogenic strains. Some riboswitches have risen as promising targets for developing antibacterial drugs. Here, we describe the design and applications of the chimeric antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) as a novel antibacterial agent. The pVEC-ASO-1 consists of a cell-penetrating oligopeptide known as pVEC attached to an oligonucleotide part with modifications of the first and the second generations. This combination of modifications enables specific mRNA degradation under multiple turnover conditions via RNase H. The pVEC-ASO targets the S-adenosyl methionine (SAM)-I riboswitch found in the genome of many Gram-positive bacteria. The SAM-I riboswitch controls not only the biosynthesis but also the transport of SAM. We have established an antibiotic dosage of 700 nM (4.5 µg/mL) of pVEC-ASO that inhibits 80% of the growth of
