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

introductionMultidrug resistance (MDR) has been identified in wound bacterial isolates from Ukrainian war victims treated in Ukraine and across Europe. ILP100, a drug candidate for the treatment of skin wounds, is composed of a Limosilactobacillus reuteri expressing human chemokine CXCL12. In this study, the antimicrobial effects of ILP100 were tested on MDR bacteria isolated from wounds of Ukrainian war victims.

methodsILP100 was co-cultured with one of the wound pathogens (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, Enterobacter cloacae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Staphylococcus aureus; 12 non-MDR and 12 MDR isolates) in broth media for 12 h with subsequent survival recovery on agar plates. Additionally, agar plates were precoated with ILP100 at clinical doses (3 vs. 24 h, 1 × 10

resultsDose-dependent growth inhibition of all pathogens was demonstrated, as 1000:1 and 100:1 (ILP100/isolate) inhibited pathogenic growth up to log 6.4 and log 4.3 CFU/ml, respectively. Potent antimicrobial effects were demonstrated after precoating with ILP100, as pathogen recovery was only demonstrated after 3 h of precoating, only for 10/18 isolates and then only partially. Benchmarking to relevant antibiotic discs resulted in large cleared zones surrounding the ILP100 spots but not the antibiotic discs, demonstrating potent bacterial killing by ILP100-secreted factors. Interestingly, the MDR pathogens were significantly more sensitive to the ILP100 released factors than the non-MDR isolates.

conclusionILP100 effectively eliminates MDR wound pathogens, which reveals a promising strategy for the development of new classes of urgently needed antimicrobials.
