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

Allocyclinones A-D are small congeners of angucyclinones with several unusual structural features and potent antibiotic activity against various Gram-positive pathogens. Allocyclinone A, the most active congener, contains an intriguing aromatic trichloromethyl substituent that has never been observed in other natural products before. In this study, we report a modular total synthesis of allocyclinones A and B featuring the convergent assembly of three key building blocks through Hauser annulation and cross-couplings. The synthesis of allocyclinone A was made possible by the application of a late-stage trifluoromethyl-to-trichloromethyl swap, providing a potentially generalizable strategy for aromatic trichloromethyl installation in complex settings. The antibiotic activity of the scaffold was also verified, and attempts to elucidate its mode of action were performed.
