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

Antibiotic resistance represents a growing global health crisis, diminishing the effectiveness of existing treatments and accelerating the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacterial strains. In this study, we present a mathematical framework for systematically characterizing data sets of collateral sensitivity patterns in evolving drug-resistant bacterial populations. This formalization is implemented in an open-source computational platform providing an intuitive and accessible in silico tool for data-driven antibiotic selection. By leveraging this approach, we can rapidly identify a therapeutic regimen that minimizes the risk of resistance evolution. The utility of this framework is demonstrated by highlighting the failure of antibiotic therapy in chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. Our approach offers a scalable strategy for navigating bacterial evolutionary landscapes and delineates key conditions under which sequential antibiotic therapies are prone to failure.
