Stability of Mueller-Hinton agar supplemented with glucose and methylene blue for disk diffusion testing of fluconazole and voriconazole.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The shelf life of Mueller-Hinton agar supplemented with 2% glucose and methylene blue (0.5 micro g/ml) (MH-GMB) prepared in the laboratory to test disk diffusion of voriconazole and fluconazole was assessed using quality control (QC) strains of Candida albicans ATCC 90028, Candida krusei ATCC 6258, and Candida parapsilosis ATCC 22019. MH-GMB agar plates were prepared as described in National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards document M44-P, and isolates were tested using 25- micro g fluconazole disks and 1- micro g voriconazole disks over a 36-day period. Zone diameters for fluconazole and voriconazole varied by no more than 4 mm over the study period, and 95 to 100% of results were within the established QC limits for the strains tested. Prepared MH-GMB agar plates provide acceptable performance for disk diffusion testing for at least 30 days when stored at 5 degrees C.
