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

Carbapenem resistance among bacteria, especially Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii, constitutes a dreadful threat to public health all over the world that requires developing new medications urgently. Carbapenem resistance emerges as a serious problem as this class is used as a last-line option to clear the multidrug-resistant bacteria. Arthrospira maxima (Spirulina) is a well-known cyanobacterium used as a food supplement as it is rich in protein, essential minerals and vitamins and previous studies showed it may have some antimicrobial activity against different organisms. Biosynthesized (green) zinc oxide nanoparticles have been investigated by several researchers as antibacterials because of their safety in health. In this article, previous studies were analyzed to get to a conclusion about their activity as antibacterials.
