The effect of fluconazole treatment on tumor necrosis factor-alpha production in murine candidiasis.

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
That systemic candidiasis increases TNF-alpha has been proved in various studies. In our study, we investigated if fluconazole too, which is used in treatment, has an additional effect on the increase of TNF-alpha. On the sixth day of the experimental infection, it was measured that TNF-alpha levels of candidiasis was 699 +/- 60 pg/ml whereas it was 683 +/- 35 pg/ml in the mice that were treated with fluconazole. TNF-alpha levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay. Due to the fact that no statistically significant difference was found between them (p > .05) it was thought that fluconazole did not have an additional effect on the increase of TNF-alpha in candidiasis.
