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

In order to develop new approaches for the chemotherapy of invasive infections caused by Scedosporium prolificans, the in vitro interaction between itraconazole and terbinafine against 20 clinical isolates was studied using a checkerboard microdilution method. Itraconazole and terbinafine alone were inactive against most isolates, but the combination was synergistic against 95 and 85% of isolates after 48 and 72 h of incubation, respectively. Antagonism was not observed. The MICs obtained with the terbinafine-itraconazole combination were within levels that can be achieved in plasma.
