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

Complex bacterial glycoconjugates are essential for bacterial survival, and drive interactions between pathogens and symbionts, and their human hosts. Glycoconjugate biosynthesis is initiated at the membrane interface by phosphoglycosyl transferases (PGTs), which catalyze the transfer of a phosphosugar from a soluble uridine diphospho-sugar (UDP-sugar) substrate to a membrane-bound polyprenol-phosphate (Pren-P). Two distinct superfamilies of PGT enzymes, denoted as polytopic and monotopic, carry out this reaction but show striking differences in structure and mechanism. With the goal of creating non-hydrolyzable mimics (UBP-sugars) of the UDP-sugar substrates as chemical probes to interrogate critical aspects of these essential enzymes, we designed and synthesized a series of uridine bisphosphonates (UBPs), wherein the diphosphate bridging oxygen of the UDP and UDP-sugar is replaced by a substituted methylene group (CXY; X/Y = F/F, Cl/Cl, (
