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

Two-component lantibiotics comprise two post-translationally modified peptides that synergistically exert antimicrobial activity. Most known two-component lantibiotics are made up of a structurally conserved α-lanthipeptide that binds to the peptidoglycan precursor lipid II and a β-lanthipeptide that interacts with the α-peptide-lipid II complex to form pores in the membranes of susceptible bacteria. A few two-component lantibiotics, including roseocin, do not appear to follow this general scheme and act by currently unresolved mechanisms. An important first step in studying these lanthipeptides is the determination of their chemical structure. Roseocin's β-peptide (Rosβ) is formed by the RosM lanthipeptide synthetase from the RosA1 precursor peptide. RosM carries out nine dehydrations of Ser and Thr residues to the corresponding dehydroamino acids followed by six Michael-type additions of the thiols of Cys residues to a subset of the dehydroamino acids forming six thioether cross-links. Sequence alignment with structurally characterized lanthipeptides does not allow prediction of the ring pattern of Rosβ. In this study, Rosβ was produced in
