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

We conducted in vitro experiments to evaluate the susceptibility of a clinical isolate of Cryptococcus neoformans to a wide range of concentrations of fluconazole. In vitro susceptibility was tested using broth macrodilution methods modified to provide a numeric count of viable organisms. The association between the quantitative in vitro response and fluconazole drug concentrations was estimated using local nonparametric regression. Regression analysis was used to assess the correspondence between the in vitro fluconazole concentration-response curve and the murine dose-response curve observed in our previously reported murine model. The regression model was then used to predict the murine response. There was a strong correspondence between in vitro measures of response to fluconazole alone and the previously reported biologic effects seen in the mouse. In vitro antifungal drug susceptibility testing can reliably predict the murine response to fluconazole.
