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: Rhodomyrtone is a novel plant-derived antibiotic compound originally isolated from Objectives: To evaluate the activity of rhodomyrtone against a group of MRSA strains, including isolates with reduced susceptibility or resistance to vancomycin, daptomycin, linezolid and ceftaroline. Methods: Broth microdilution testing was used to determine the MICs and MBCs of rhodomyrtone, fosfomycin, vancomycin, daptomycin, linezolid and ceftaroline. Results: ROM had an MIC Conclusions: Rhodomyrtone demonstrated excellent activity against MRSA as well as isolates with resistance or reduced activity to other anti-MRSA drugs including vancomycin, daptomycin and linezolid. Rhodomyrtone may have potential clinical utility when treating patients with infections caused by MRSA including those with reduced susceptibility to first-line anti-MRSA antimicrobial agents.
