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

aimsThis study aims to evaluate the antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of Lys-a1, particularly in combination with oxacillin (OXA), against foodborne MATERIALS AND

methodsThe antibacterial activity was determined by minimum inhibitory/bactericidal concentration (MIC/MBC) and time-kill curves. Additionally, the potential synergistic effects between Lys-a1 and OXA were assessed using a checkerboard assay, and the ability of this combination to disrupt pre-formed biofilms was also investigated.

resultsAll tested strains were sensitive to Lys-a1, exhibiting MIC values ranging from 25 to 100 µg/mL and MBC typically one or twice the MIC values. The time-kill curve indicated the bactericidal effect within 180-240 minutes, achieving a 99.99% reduction in viable cells. Despite the detectable additive action, a notable synergistic effect was observed when Lys-a1 was combined with OXA for most strains (5/8), with an FIC index between 0.31 and 0.50. The Lys-a1/OXA combination significantly reduced biomass by around 50% and 90% of pre-formed biofilms compared with control and OXA-treated and untreated cells, respectively.

conclusionsThe results suggest that Lys-a1/OXA combination could be a promising approach for sensitizing Gram-negative bacteria and expanding treatment options using OXA.
