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

The zoopathogenic fungus Histoplasma capsulatum, like other eukaryotic aerobic microorganisms, requires iron for growth. Under conditions of low iron availability, the fungus secretes hydroxamates that function as siderophores (iron chelators). The experiments to be reported were designed to gather further information on the hydroxamate siderophores of H. capsulatum. The fungus was grown in a synthetic medium deferrated with the cationic exchange resin Chelex 100. Siderophores were detected after 4 days of incubation at 37 degrees C in media containing 0.3 to 1.0 microM iron. The secretion was suppressed by 10 microM iron. The hydroxamates were purified by reverse-phase and size-exclusion chromatography. On the basis of ions observed during electrospray mass spectroscopy, five hydroxamate siderophores were tentatively identified: dimerum acid, acetyl dimerum acid, coprogen B, methyl coprogen B, and fusarinine (monomeric). A polyclonal antibody to dimerum acid was generated. This reagent cross-reacted with coprogen B and fusarinine. Thus, the antibody detects hydroxamates in all three families of siderophores excreted by H. capsulatum.
