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

backgroundGalatella is a genus in the family Asteraceae, represented by 35-45 species. Considering the high effectiveness of the ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction of G. grimmii against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MIC = 0.5 µg/mL), a bioassay-directed fractionation of this extract was carried out.

methodsThe methanolic extract of the aerial parts of G. grimmii was obtained using maceration, then it was suspended in water and partitioned with petroleum ether, dichloromethane (CH

resultsFractionation of the EtOAc solvent fraction resulted in the characterization of five compounds, among them, compounds 1 and 2 showed the highest anti-mycobacterial effects with MICs of 0.062 and 1.00 µg/mL against H37Rv M. tuberculosis, respectively, which were higher than those of rifampin (MIC of 1.25 µg/mL) and isoniazid (MIC of 0.31 µg/mL), as positive controls. Also, compound 1 ​​inhibited all tested strains of drug-resistant Mycobacterium (MDR and XDR). Notably, the isolated compounds have been reported for the first time from G. grimmii.

conclusionDue to the potent anti-mycobacterial effect of isolated compounds from G. grimmii, this study could pave the way for developing a novel class of natural anti-tuberculosis compounds.
