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

Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as a prominent nosocomial pathogen, exhibiting a progressive rise in resistance to therapeutic interventions. This rise in resistance calls for alternative strategies. Here, we propose an alternative yet specialized resource on antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) against A. baumannii. Database 'AbAMPdb' is the manually curated collection of 300 entries containing the 250 experimental AMP sequences and 50 corresponding synthetic or mutated AMP sequences. The mutated sequences were modified with reported amino acid substitutions intended for decreasing the toxicity and increasing the antimicrobial potency. AbAMPdb also provides 3D models of all 300 AMPs, comprising 250 natural and 50 synthetic or mutated AMPs. Moreover, the database offers docked complexes comprising 5000 AMPs and their corresponding A. baumannii target proteins. These complexes, accessible in Protein Data Bank format, enable the 2D visualization of the interacting amino acid residues. We are confident that this comprehensive resource furnishes vital information concerning AMPs, encompassing their docking interactions with virulence factors and antibiotic resistance proteins of A. baumannii. To enhance clinical relevance, the characterized AMPs could undergo further investigation both in vitro and in vivo. Database URL: https://abampdb.mgbio.tech/.
