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

Bacterial resistance against antimicrobial drugs is a forthcoming threat to the prevention and treatment of developing bacterial infections. Hence, the development of new antimicrobial therapy or therapeutic drugs is desperately needed. A combination of antibiotics exhibits synergistic antibacterial effects. As the combination approach of antibiotics has always shown better results against pathogens compared to monotherapy with an antibiotic, we focused on creating a new combination that may reduce the chances of strains attaining resistance, consequently lowering the toxicity factor associated with the consumption of high amounts of antibiotics. Nisin, a food preservative and potential antibiotic, shows antibacterial activity against Gram-positive strains. Since the past decade, ionic liquids (ILs) have proven to be an important class of potential antibacterial agents. In our study, we studied the effect of pyrrolidinium-based ILs and arrived at a noncovalent conjugate formed by combining nisin with ILs. The conjugates were tested against a couple of clinically relevant microorganisms, namely,
