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

backgroundAminoglycoside antibiotics continue to play an indispensable role in clinical antibacterial agents. However, the protection and deprotection procedures in the chemical pathways of semi-synthetic antibiotics are long, atom- and step-inefficient, which severely hampers the development of novel AGs.

resultsHere, GenB3 and GenB4 are employed to synthesize sisomicin, Oxo-verdamicin, Oxo-gentamicin C1a, and Oxo-gentamicin C2a. Subsequently, a semi-rational strategy is applied to enhance the activities of GenB3 and GenB4. The activity of GenB3

conclusionOur results not only lay the foundation for the mild and efficient synthesis of C6'-modified AGs analogues but also serve as a reference for synthesizing additional single components in M. echinospora by further enhancing the dideoxygenation process.
