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

Cytotoxicity and instability in complex physiological environments remain key barriers to the clinical translation of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) especially for infected wounds, which contain protease-rich exudate and are highly sensitive to toxicity that can impede healing. This is despite the strong potential of AMPs to combat antimicrobial resistance, with efficacy against a broad spectrum of pathogens including multidrug-resistant
