In vitro activity of antifungal drugs against Plasmodium falciparum field isolates.
Article in Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 increasing resistance of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum to currently available drugs necessitates a continuous effort to develop new antimalarial agents. We therefore aimed to assess the in vitro activity of the antifungal drugs clotrimazole, fluconazole, ketoconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, flucytosine, amphotericin B, and caspofungin against field isolates of P. falciparum from Lambaréné, Gabon. Using the histidin-rich protein 2 (HRP-2) assay we determined the drug susceptibility (EC(50), EC(90)) of 16 field isolates obtained from outpatients attending the Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Lambaréné, Gabon. For fluconazole, itraconazole and caspofungin the in vitro growth inhibition of these drugs is reported for the first time. Our data indicate that clotrimazole, fluconazole, itraconazole and caspofungin show median EC(50) values of 3.1 µg/mL, 1.9 µg/mL, 1.1 µg/mL and 1.1 µg/mL respectively. Ketoconazole, voriconazole, flucytosine and amphotercin B showed no relevant growth inhibition within the range of drug concentrations used in this study.
