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

An increased manifestation of antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens necessitates reduced usage of the current generation of antibiotics and warrants the search for novel antimicrobial agents. Peptidoglycan hydrolytic enzymes like endolysins are a promising alternative to antibiotics, resulting in a quest for novel endolysins. The analysis of Salmonella bacteriophage Stp1 complete genome revealed an ORF encoding an endolysin with L-alanyl-D-glutamate carboxypeptidase activity and was designated as LysStp1. The promising results obtained with molecular docking prompted us to carry out cloning, expression, and purification of LysStp1. Purified LysStp1 showed strong muralytic activity against multiple Gram-negative bacteria, following chloroform permeabilization of the outer membrane. LysStp1 activity ranged from pH 4 to 10, with maximal activity at pH 9 and stability [> 70%] at pH 6-9. Similarly, LysStp1 exhibited significant activity [> 80%] from 20 to 70 °C with optimum activity at 60 °C and retained 50% stability for up to 30 min of incubation at 100 °C. Interestingly, Ca
