Candida dubliniensis screening using the germ tube test in clinical yeast isolates and prevalence of C. dubliniensis in Korea.
Article in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 aim of this study was to screen for C. dubliniensis using the germ tube test with human pooled serum (HPS) in clinical isolates and investigate the prevalence of C. dubliniensis in Korea. Among 1,854 yeast strains isolated, 1,404 strains of C. albicans (on the basis of positive results of the germ tube test) and 192 germ tube-negative yeast strains were examined. All 1,596 clinical isolates were examined using the germ tube test with HPS, the differential temperature, and NaCl tolerance test. Only 81 isolates that did not grow at 45 degrees C nor on Sabouraud 6.5% NaCl broth were selected and tested using the VITEK 2 ID-YST system and the multiplex-PCR assay for the study. The two strains, C. dubliniensis ATCC MYA-646 and KCTC 17427 failed to produce germ tubes in HPS but produced them in fresh rabbit serum (FRS) and fetal bovine serum (FBS). No C. dubliniensis was found in this study population. The results of this study suggest that the germ tube test with HPS in combination with FRS or FBS can be used for discriminating between C. albicans and C. dubliniensis strains and that the prevalence of C. dubliniensis appears to be extremely low in Korea.
