Drug Repurposing: An Emerging Strategy in
Review in Journal of microbiology and biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Infections are a growing global threat to public health, and the rapid spread of drug-resistant pathogens is a big challenge. The development and approval of novel antimicrobials targeting multi-drug-resistant infections lag significantly behind the rapid emergence of resistance. For these threats and challenges, new strategies are critically needed. Drug repurposing, using approved or investigational drugs for other clinical conditions, has emerged as an alternative approach for rapid identification of effective antibacterial agents. Although drug repurposing is not novel, recent years have witnessed the development of novel methodologies enabling its systematic and rational implementation. This review summarizes methodological approaches for antimicrobial repurposing against
