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, the antimycobacterial screening of a series of rifamycin analogues, modified at their C-3 extension, is reported. Overall, these compounds display potent activity against a wild-type Mtb strain assayed in three different growth media. Several promising C-3 extensions are identified through this screen, with compounds featuring rigid tertiary alicyclic hydrazones displaying superior activity to amino compounds. In addition, a general correlative trend between logP and biological activity is observed. This study adds to the growing literature surrounding structure activity relationship pertaining the important C-3 extension of rifamycin, which in addition to a poorly understood role in target engagement, has utility for modulating physicochemical properties, a key condition in antimycobacterial drug discovery.
