Investigation on the Synergy between Membrane Permeabilizing Amphiphilic α-Hydrazido Acids and Commonly Used Antibiotics against Drug-Resistant Bacteria.

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 growth of (multi)drug resistance in bacteria is among the most urgent global health issues. Monocationic amphiphilic α-hydrazido acid derivatives are structurally simple mimics of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) with fewer drawbacks. Their mechanism of membrane permeabilization at subtoxic concentrations was found to begin with an initial electrostatic attraction of isolated amphiphile molecules to the phospholipid heads, followed by a rapid insertion of the apolar portions. As the accumulation into the bilayer proceeded, the membrane increased its fluidity and permeability without being subjected to major structural damage. After having ascertained that α-hydrazido acid amphiphiles do not interact with bacterial DNA, they were subjected to synergy evaluation for combinations with conventional antibiotics. Synergy was observed for combinations with tetracycline against sensitive
