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

A multilaboratory collaborative study was performed in order to propose quality control limits for posaconazole disk diffusion susceptibility tests on Mueller-Hinton agar supplemented with 2% glucose and 0.5 microg of methylene blue per ml. Replicate tests were performed on three lots of prepared media using 5-microg posaconazole disks in each of eight laboratories to generate data to propose quality control zone diameter ranges for tests of Candida albicans ATCC 90028 (24 to 34 mm), C. parapsilosis ATCC 22019 (25 to 36 mm), C. tropicalis ATCC 750 (23 to 33 mm), and C. krusei ATCC 6258 (23 to 31 mm).
