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

Beta-lactam drugs hold a central place in the antibacterial arsenal, and the production of beta-lactamases by drug-resistant bacteria has severely compromised the effectiveness of nearly all available beta-lactams. Therefore, in the face of the increasing threat of drug resistance, the combined use of beta-lactamase inhibitors (BLIs) with beta-lactam antibiotics is crucial for treating infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria. Hence, the development of BLIs has always been a hot topic in the field of medicinal chemistry. In recent years, significant progress has been made in screening active drugs by enhancing the affinity of inhibitors for enzymes and the stability of their complexes, based on the design concept of competitive inhibitors. Here, we review the effects and mechanisms of newly synthesized beta-lactamase inhibitors on various BLIs in recent years, to provide ideas for the development of subsequent beta-lactamase inhibitors.
