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

Introduction: Due to the prevalence of MDR strains, alternative treatments such as antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) have received much attention. This technique is an innovative technology that utilizes photosensitizers and generates active oxygen species. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of aPDT against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Materials & Methods: Optimization of PDT conditions -across different drug concentrations, different incubation times, different doses of laser radiation -was performed in vitro, and then the anti-biofilm effects of the optimal concentration against clinical isolates of MDR Results: Based on the results, the drug at a concentration of 40 µg/mL encapsulated in nanoemulsion, a laser dose of 13 J/cm Conclusion: The promising antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity of NE/ClZnlPc-mediated aPDT against MDR
