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

backgroundMicrobial biotransformation strategies for prescribed drugs have attracted great interest because the biotransformation process simulates what happens in the human metabolism and may be considered a resource for new pharmaceuticals.

methodsThe promising candidate for colchicine biotransformation was identified using Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time-of-Flight (MALDI-TOF/MS). Colchicine was quantified by a modified procedure based on the reduction of alkaline potassium permanganate and HPLC. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used for optimizing and modeling colchicine biotransformation. The colchicine-metabolizing products were identified using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry.

resultsFifteen bacteria infected the upper respiratory tract during the COVID-19 pandemic were collected and screened for colchicine resistance. One of them could metabolize 41.38% colchicine in enriched SF2 medium supplemented with 7gl

conclusionsThe main colchicine metabolized products; 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl) propanoic acid, 4'-hydroxy-2'-methylacetophenone, dihydrorotenone, and glabridin, potentially could be applied in the medical field for more functions than those described for the parent compound.
