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

The rise of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) as a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections underscores the urgent need for new treatment strategies. In fact, resistance has developed not only to vancomycin but also to other clinically used agents, such as daptomycin and linezolid. We propose a novel drug design approach merging tedizolid, a second-generation oxazolidinone used as an unapproved salvage therapy in clinical settings, with carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CAIs) recently validated as functioning decolonization agents. These sulfonamide derivatives showed potent inhibition of the carbonic anhydrases from Enterococcus faecium, with K
