Combination therapy of bacteriophage and antibiotics offers promise to treat multiple drug resistant bacterial infections through phage antibiotic synergy. However, its usage requires careful assessment as most antibiotics with mechanisms dependent upon inhibiting cell growth through interfering bacterial protein synthesis machinery were found to have an antagonistic effect on phage activity.

Matching journals

The top 4 journals account for 50% of the predicted probability mass.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
