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

The authors reported the isolation and genetic characterization of Sporothrix schenckii strains from natural environmental samples and commercial amended and garden soils. Twenty-six isolates were recovered and identified as S. schenckii by using both phenotypic and molecular methods. The majority of the strains were isolated from commercial amended and garden soils, indicating that these products represent an important reservoir of the fungus. Sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the D1-D2 region of the 28S rRNA gene of environmental isolates, including S. schenckii ATCC 10268 and two Italian clinical strains, revealed a degree of difference sufficient to justify the separation of the examined isolates in two principal groups (environmental and clinical). Such separation in two groups is further supported by two well-conserved nucleotide polymorphisms, caused by single-base transitions, in the D1-D2 domain of rDNA. In this study, the presence in nature and/or in commercial products of S. schenckii is discussed. To our knowledge, this is the first study that reports the environmental isolation of S. schenckii from southern Italy.
