Chloramphenicol and tetracycline synergize with bacteriophage SeKF_13 to inactivate antimicrobial-resistant
Article in Microbiology spectrum, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Non-typhoidal IMPORTANCE: Salmonella enterica is a foodborne pathogen that causes one of the highest rates of foodborne illness worldwide. They are also capable of becoming resistant to antimicrobials very rapidly (i.e., antimicrobial resistance; AMR) due to their ability to acquire AMR determinants, undermining the effectiveness of current treatments. Bacteriophages (phages), viral predators of bacteria, have been proven to be effective in some cases, but recently, phage-antibiotic synergy has been proposed as a more effective solution than phages or antibiotics alone. We found this was, indeed, the case; using phage SeKF_13 and tetracycline or chloramphenicol (to which the Salmonella strain was resistant), we found that combination treatment was significantly more effective than either treatment alone. These results demonstrate that combined treatment of phage and antibiotic can bolster treatment efficacy against AMR Salmonella.
