Antimicrobial activity and properties of de novo design of short synthetic lipopeptides.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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 aim of this article is to introduce the topic of newly designed peptides as well as their biological activity. We designed nine encoded peptides composed of six amino acids. All these peptides were synthesized with C-terminal amidation. To investigate the importance of increased hydrophobicity at the amino end of the peptides, all of them were subsequently synthesized with palmitic or lithocholic acid at the N-terminus. Antimicrobial activity was tested on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. Cytotoxicity was measured on HepG2 and HEK 293 T cell cultures. Peptides bearing a hydrophobic group exhibited the best antimicrobial activity. Lipopeptides with palmitic or lithocholic acid (PAL or LCA peptides) at the N-terminus and with C-terminal amidation were highly active against Gram-positive bacteria, especially against strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Candida tropicalis. The LCA peptide SHP 1.3 with the sequence LCA-LVKRAG-NH
