Suppression of planktonic and biofilm of Escherichia coli by the synergistic lantibiotics-polymyxins combinations.
Article in Archives of microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Escherichia coli are generally resistant to the lantibiotic's action (nisin and warnerin), but we have shown increased sensitivity of E. coli to lantibiotics in the presence of subinhibitory concentrations of polymyxins. Synergistic lantibiotic-polymyxin combinations were found for polymyxins B and M. The killing of cells at the planktonic and biofilm levels was observed for two collection and four clinical multidrug-resistant E. coli strains after treatment with lantibiotic-polymyxin B combinations. Thus, 24-h treatment of E. coli mature biofilms with warnerin-polymyxin B or nisin-polymyxin B leads to five to tenfold decrease in the number of viable cells, depending on the strain. AFM revealed that the warnerin and polymyxin B combination caused the loss of the structural integrity of biofilm and the destruction of cells within the biofilm. It has been shown that pretreatment of cells with polymyxin B leads to an increase of Ca
