The Small Molecule Inhibitor of the Type III Secretion System Fluorothiazinone Affects Flagellum Surface Presentation and Restricts Motility in Gram-Negative Bacteria.

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/
objectivesFluorothiazinone (FT), a small molecule of the 2,4-disubstituted-4H-[1,3,4]-thiadiazine-5-one class, is known to inhibit the type III secretion system (T3SS) in Gram-negative bacteria and has shown therapeutic potential in animal models and clinical trials. Given the evolutionary relationship between the T3SS and the bacterial flagellar apparatus, this study aimed to investigate the effects of FT on bacterial motility and flagellum assembly.

resultsFT inhibited motility of
conclusionsFT selectively inhibits flagellum-based motility in Gram-negative bacteria. Obtained data suggested FT interference with flagellum biosynthesis rather than disruption of rotation. Motility inhibition can contribute to FT therapeutic effects on Gram-negative bacterial infections.
