Assessment In vitro and In silico of the Activity of Thiadiazines as NorA Efflux Pump Inhibitors.
Article in Current microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Antimicrobials fight microorganisms, preventing and treating infectious diseases. However, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern due to the inappropriate and excessive use of these drugs. Several mechanisms can lead to resistance, including efflux pumps such as the NorA pump in Staphylococcus aureus, which reduces the effectiveness of fluoroquinolones. Thiadiazines are heterocyclic compounds whose chemical structure resembles that of cephalosporins. Therefore, these compounds and their derivatives have been studied for their potential in combating increased bacterial resistance. To analyze this hypothesis, direct activity assays, antibiotic action-modifying activity, fluorescence assays to evaluate the retention of ethidium bromide inside bacteria, and molecular docking were carried out. These experiments involved serial dilutions in microplates against Staphylococcus aureus strain 1199B under the influence of six thiadiazine derivatives (IJ10, IJ11, IJ21, IJ22, IJ23, and IJ25). The tests revealed that, despite not showing effective direct activity, some thiadiazine derivatives (IJ11, IJ21, and IJ22) inhibited the function of the bromide pump both in microdilution tests and in fluorescence and docking assays. Particularly, the IJ11 compound stood out for its activity similar to efflux inhibitors, as well as its inhibition of the norfloxacin pump of this bacterium. Among the results of this study, it deserves to be highlighted for anchoring future experiments, as it represents the first investigation of this group of thiadiazine derivatives against the NorA pump.
