Vanadium complexes as potential metal-based antimicrobial drugs.
Review in Journal of biological inorganic chemistry : JBIC : a publication of the Society of Biological Inorganic Chemistry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Radical increase of antibiotic resistance among microbes has become a serious problem for clinics all over the world that has led to the need for search of novel types of antimicrobial drugs. Each year, researchers synthesize a multitude of compounds in pursuit of identifying potential chemotherapeutic agents through diverse methodological evaluations. Among the vast array of biologically significant compounds, coordination compounds exhibit a broad range of activities within biological systems. Chelation, in particular, induces significant alterations in the biological properties of ligands and the metal component, contributing to their efficacy. Chelation increases the lipophilicity of metal complexes as a result of which they are easily absorbed by the microorganisms, thus leading to their easy passage across cell membrane. The research and development in the field of metallodrugs can be advantageous to overcome the problem encountered in antibiotic resistance. The multifaceted involvement of vanadium relative to other biometals within biological systems, coupled with its comparatively lower toxicity, underscores its utility in the advancement of novel metal-based therapeutic agents. This review aims to delineate the biological significance of V(V/IV/III) complexes as antimicrobial agents. The amassed data indicate a correlation between the potency of vanadium complexes as antimicrobial agents and the oxidation state of the metal, with III being the least toxic and V representing the most toxic oxidation state of vanadium.
