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

Sporotrichosis has significantly increased in Brazil in the last decade, particularly in the state of Rio de Janeiro, with the occurrence of an epidemic related to zoonotic transmission from cats to humans. Recently, four new phylogenetic species were incorporated into the Sporothrix species complex based on the phenotypic and molecular characteristics, and a new species name (Sporothrix brasiliensis) was proposed for some of the Sporothrix isolates from this epidemic. This study describes the characterization of 246 isolates obtained from patients attending the Laboratory of Infectious Dermatology, IPEC-FIOCRUZ, between 1998 and 2008, together with one environmental sample. Two hundred and six of the isolates (83.4%) were characterized as S. brasiliensis, 15 (6.0%) as S. schenckii, and one (0.5%) as S. mexicana. Twenty-five isolates (10.1%) could not be identified according to their phenotype and were classified as Sporothrix spp. The calmodulin gene was sequenced to confirm the identity of these isolates. The molecular analysis demonstrated that 24 of the isolates were S. brasiliensis, with the remainder being a S. globosa isolate. The isolate characterized phenotypically as S. mexicana was clustered on the S. schenckii clade. The correlation between molecular data and phenotypic characteristics described in this study is fundamental to the identification of the Sporothrix complex.
