Cell-associated collagenolytic activity by Candida albicans.
Article in Mycopathologia, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Cell associated collagenolytic activity of Candida albicans was quantified by measuring the degradation of synthetic peptide 2-furanacryloyl-Leu-Gly-Pro-Ala (FALGPA), which is a specific substrate for collagenase, by the freeze-thaw procedure method. This collagenolytic activity was enhanced by cells cultured in the presence of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in culture medium. However, this activity was inhibited in the presence of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt (EDTA-2Na), but not by the serine proteinase inhibitor p-amidinophenyl methanesulfonyl fluoride (APMSF), nor the aspartyl proteinase inhibitor pepstatin A. These results suggested the presence of a metalloenzyme on pericellular C. albicans.
