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

Background: Methicillin-resistant Methods: The cell-free supernatant of this bacterium was subjected to salt precipitation, cation exchange, and reversed-phase chromatography. The antimicrobial activity of pure substances was determined by broth microdilution assay. The peptide sequences and secondary structures were characterized by tandem mass spectroscopy and circular dichroism (CD), respectively. The most active anti-MRSA peptide underwent a stability study, and its mechanism was determined through scanning electron microscopy, cell permeability assay, time-killing kinetics, and biofilm inhibition and eradication. Hemolysis was used to evaluate the peptide toxicity. Results: The pure substances (BrSPR19-P1 to BrSPR19-P5) were identified as new peptides. Their minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) against Conclusion: Five novel anti-MRSA peptides were identified from SPR19. P2 was the most active peptide and was demonstrated to cause membrane disruption and cell lysis. The P2 activity was dependent on the peptide concentration and exposure time. This peptide had antibiofilm activity against tested pathogens and was compatible with human erythrocytes, supporting its potential use as an anti-MRSA agent in this post-antibiotic era.
