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

Sporothrix schenckii is the etiologic agent of sporotrichosis. This fungal infection is an emerging disease potentially fatal in immunocompromised patients. The adhesion to host cells is a crucial early event related with the dissemination of pathogens. In order to clarify the mechanisms of adhesion of S. schenckii yeast cell to epithelial cells, we studied the biochemical basis of this process. The electrophoretic analysis of cell wall protein from S. schenckii coupled at ConA and stained with HRP, revealed nine different proteins with MW ≥ 180, 115, 90, 80, 58, 40, 36, 22 and 18 kDa. Using ligand-like assay with biotinylated S. schenckii surface proteins, five proteins with MW ≥ 190, 180, 115, 90 and 80 kDa which have affinity to epithelial cells were identified. The adhesion of yeast to epithelial monolayer was significantly inhibited when S. schenckii was pretreated with concanavalinA (ConA) and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) lectins, alkali, periodate, trypsin, endoglycosidase H (EndoH), salt solutions and detergents. The ability of adhesion of S. schenckii yeast was recovered by blocking the lectin with sugar complementary. These data suggest that surface glycoprotein with mannose and glucose residue could be participate in the process of fungal adhesion to epithelial cells.
