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

Three 3-(halogenated phenyl)-5-acyloxymethyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-ones were evaluated for activity against 191 strains of common and emerging yeasts and Aspergillus species by the broth microdilution test performed according to NCCLS guidelines. The furanone derivatives displayed broad-spectrum in vitro activity against potentially pathogenic yeasts and molds, especially Aspergillus spp. (MIC <or= 2.0 microg/ml) and fluconazole-resistant yeast isolates, including Candida glabrata and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The 4-bromophenyl derivative was the most effective derivative against the majority of species tested, except for the Candida tropicalis and C. glabrata strains, which were more susceptible to the 3-chlorophenyl derivative. The 3,4-dichlorophenyl derivative possessed a lesser in vitro antifungal effect. The potential of further experiments on animal infection and clinical studies is supported by the relatively low cytotoxicity and acute toxicity of the 4-bromophenyl compound. Thus, the halogenated 3-phenyl-5-acyloxymethyl derivatives of 2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one represent a novel, promising group of compounds with significant activity against relevant opportunistic fungi that are pathogenic to humans.
