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

Resistance to antimicrobial drugs is currently a serious threat to human health. Consequently, we are facing an urgent need for new antimicrobial drugs acting with original modes of action. The ubiquitous and widely conserved microbial fatty acid biosynthesis pathway, called FAS-II system, represents a potential target to tackle antimicrobial resistance. This pathway has been extensively studied, and eleven proteins have been described. FabI (or InhA, its homologue in mycobacteria) was considered as a prime target by many teams and is currently the only enzyme with commercial inhibitor drugs: triclosan and isoniazid. Furthermore, afabicin and CG400549, two promising compounds which also target FabI, are in clinical assays to treat
