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

The escalating threat of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, biofilms and viral contamination in the healthcare and food industries threatens global health and requires the development of innovative antimicrobials. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have attracted attention as antimicrobial candidates, but there is little data on their effectiveness against antibiotic-resistant bacteria and viruses. This study evaluated the effectiveness of two organic acid-based DESs (T-glycoline and oxaline) and two non-organic acid-based DESs (reline and glyceline) against antibiotic-resistant Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as enveloped and non-enveloped viruses. Organic acid-based deep eutectic solvents outperformed their non-organic counterparts, achieving minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 0.20-0.83% v/v. T-glycoline and oxaline demonstrated synergy against colistin-resistant
