Development of polymyxin- and aminoglycoside-based outer membrane permeabilizers: a review.
Review in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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 prevalence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) necessitates the development of alternative therapeutic options, particularly against critical priority Gram-negative pathogens. The utilization of antibiotic adjuvants or potentiators is an advantageous strategy that targets bacterial resistance mechanisms, thereby augmenting the activity of an antibiotic used in combination. Among these, outer membrane (OM) permeabilizers are a promising class of adjuvants which compromise the OM barrier unique to Gram-negative bacteria. This review focuses on the emerging role of polymyxins and aminoglycosides - two structurally distinct antibiotics with different modes of action, but share the ability to interact with the bacterial OM. Here, we explore the design, modification, and application of polymyxin- and aminoglycoside-based OM permeabilizers, highlighting their potential against resistant Gram-negative infections.
