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

Bacterial resistance to fluoroquinolone has been increasing at an alarming rate worldwide. In an attempt to find more potent anti-bacterial agents, an efficient, straightforward protocol was performed to obtain a large substrate scope of novel ciprofloxacin and sarafloxacin analogues conjugated with 4-(arylcarbamoyl)benzyl 7a-ab. All prepared compounds were evaluated for their anti-bacterial activities against three gram-positive strains (Methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis) as well as three gram-negative strains (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumonia, and Escherichia coli) through three standard methods including broth microdilution, agar-disc diffusion, and agar-well diffusion assays. Most of the compounds exhibited great to excellent anti-bacterial potencies against MRSA and S. aureus. Among the targeted compounds, derivative 7n exhibited great antibacterial potency, which was noticeably more potent than parent ciprofloxacin. Subsequently, a molecular docking study was performed for this compound to find out its probable binding mode with the active site of S. aureus DNA gyrase (PDB ID: 2XCT).
