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 postantibiotic effect (PAE) and the postantibiotic sub-MIC effect (PASME) of ciprofloxacin, pefloxacin and amikacin were studied for Salmonella typhimurium and S. enteritidis strains. PAE was induced by 2 x and 4 x MIC of antibiotics studied for 0.5 h. After PAE and PASME their effect on prophage induction of a lysogenic S. typhimurium strain and on Congo red binding for both strains as a marker of their surface hydrophobicity was examined. The longest PAE was found after treatment with ciprofloxacin, higher values being observed with S. typhimurium. PAEs of pefloxacin and amikacin were much lower, except for the suprainhibitory concentration 4 x MIC of amikacin with S. enteritidis (6.9h). PASMEs of ciprofloxacin did not allow any regrowth of either strain. For other antibiotics the PASMEs were different while concentrations of 2 x MIC + 0.2 x MIC and 0.3 x MIC, and of 4 x MIC + 0.1 x MIC, 0.2 x MIC and 0.3 x MIC of amikacin did not allow any regrowth of S. enteritidis. PAEs of the antibiotics tested did not affect the Congo red binding by both Salmonella strains, but the PAEs of ciprofloxacin and pefloxacin expressively induced a prophage of lysogenic S. typhimurium strain. We noted the influence of Congo red binding after applying 4 x MIC + 0.1 x MIC, 0.2 x MIC and 0.3 x MIC of amikacin for S. typhimurium and 2 x MIC + 0.1 x MIC for S. enteritidis.
