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

Herein, a library of rhenium di- and tricarbonyl complexes featuring various antimicrobial azoles as monodentate ligands is synthesized and characterized. Their antimicrobial activity is evaluated against both methicillin-sensitive (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and selected compounds are also assessed for cytotoxicity, yielding promising therapeutic indices. Notably, the complexation of antifungal azoles to the rhenium core enhances antimicrobial efficacy, with a compound exhibiting up to a 32-fold improvement in minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values relative to the parent azole. Structure-activity relationships indicate that cationic fac-[Re(CO)
