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

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has become an alarming threat to the successful treatment of rapidly growing bacterial infections due to the abuse and misuse of antibiotics. Traditional antibiotics bear many limitations, including restricted bioavailability, inadequate penetration and the emergence of antimicrobial-resistant microorganisms. Recent advances in nanotechnology for the introduction of nanoparticles with fascinating physicochemical characteristics have been predicted as an innovative means of defence against antimicrobial-resistant diseases. The use of nanoparticles provides several benefits, including improved tissue targeting, better solubility, improved stability, enhanced epithelial permeability and causes minimal side effects. However, except for gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), the biological safety of the majority of metal nanoparticles remains a serious problem. AuNPs appear to be promising for drug delivery and medicinal applications because of their minimal toxicity, biocompatibility, functional flexibility, chemical stability and versatile biological activities, such as their antiviral, antifungal, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Hence, we are focusing on the gold nanoparticles possessing antimicrobial activity in this article. This review will cover recent strategies in the preparation of gold nanoparticles, with special emphasis placed on antibiotics-coated AuNPs with enhanced antimicrobial properties and how they fight against disease-causing bacteria and eradicate biofilms, along with their activities and physicochemical properties.
