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 spread of polymyxin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains represents an emerging health challenge, limiting treatment options for the patients. Thus, the development of new antimicrobials is an urgent requirement. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a large class of compounds that are part of innate immune response; these peptides are promising compounds in the field of antimicrobial resistance and are present in all organisms. The present review evaluated patents on antimicrobial peptides tested against polymyxin-resistant K. pneumoniae, available on Espacenet as of September 2022. A total of 1313 patents were examined and 1197 excluded as they were out of focus for this review; 104 patents of peptides tested against K. pneumoniae were included; of which only 14 were tested against polymyxin-resistant K. pneumoniae strains. The results indicated that all AMPs evaluated were in the experimental or pre-clinical phase; the clinical phase is pending. Furthermore, a few peptides were tested effectively against polymyxin-resistant K. pneumoniae. Although, the research and patent filing alone are not enough to develop a suitable antimicrobial therapy, they can represent good starting point upon which to develop new antimicrobials. More investment is required to push these pharmaceuticals through the stages of development to introduce them into the market.
