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

Background: Aminoglycosides (AGs) are one of the initial classes of antibiotics that have been used clinically and possess broad spectrum of activity. Nevertheless, their clinical utilization is restricted by safety issues associated with nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity. Methods: Glycosyltransferase (GT) KanM2 was introduced into Results: Eight gentamicin derivatives were obtained in this study. GK-Ae displayed similar PTC readthrough activity and reduced toxicity compared to natural aminoglycoside G418. Moreover, GK-Ae increased the levels of both p53 and its downstream targets p21 and BAX, and promoted apoptosis of cancer cells. Conclusion: These results demonstrate the potential of combinatorial biosynthesis to increase the diversity of structures of AGs and provide directions for the development of new AGs with low toxicity and high PTC readthrough activity.
