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

Bacterial antibiotic resistance (AR) has become a critical global health threat. AR is mainly driven by adaptive resistance mutations and the horizontal gene transfer of resistance genes, both of which are enhanced by genome recombination. We previously discovered that genome recombination-mediated tRNA upregulation is important for AR, especially in the early stages. RecA is a crucial bacterial factor mediating genome recombination and the DNA damage response. Therefore, RecA inhibitors should be effective in reducing AR. In this study, we found that BRITE-338733 (BR), a RecA inhibitor, can prevent ciprofloxacin (CIP) resistance in subculturing
