The inhibitory potential of three scorpion venom peptides against multidrug-resistant
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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: The rise of drug-resistant bacterial infections, particularly those caused by Methods: Non-toxic concentrations were established for each peptide using MTT method. Antibacterial activity was performed through the liquid microdilution assay to assess the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC). A time-kill test was conducted by recording the colonies forming units (CFUs) at several times and compared with those of the untreated bacteria. Finally, the effect of peptides on the gene expression of virulence factors of Results: Antibacterial assays demonstrated bactericidal effects for pantinin-1 and pantinin-2 within 1 h, while pantinin-3 displayed bacteriostatic properties. Noteworthy, MIC values ranged from 6 to 25 μM for Conclusion: These findings support pantinins as promising candidates for treating multidrug-resistant
