Standardization of antifungal susceptibility variables for a semiautomated methodology.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 papers.
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
Recently, the methodology that will serve as a basis of the standard for antifungal susceptibility testing of fermentative yeasts of the European Committee on Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing has been described. This procedure employs a spectrophotometric method for both inoculum adjustment and endpoint determination. However, the utilization of a spectrophotometer requires studies for standardization. The present work analyzes the following parameters: (i) accuracy of inoculum preparation, (ii) correlation between optical density and CFU per milliliter, (iii) influence of the wavelength on the endpoint determination, and (iv) influence of the dimethyl sulfoxide concentration on the growth kinetics. The main results can be summarized as follows: (i) inoculum preparation following the methodology recommended by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards is an exact procedure; (ii) the relationship between optical density and CFU per milliliter is linear (coefficient of determination, r(2) = 0.84); (iii) MICs obtained by means of spectrophotometric readings at different wavelengths are identical (for amphotericin B, an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.98 was obtained; for fluconazole, the intraclass correlation coefficient was 1); and (iv) a 2% concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide produces a significantly slower and lower growth curve of Candida spp. than other concentrations.
