Protein profiling of the dimorphic pathogenic fungus, Sporothrix schenckii.
Article in Mycopathologia, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Sporotrichosis is a common cutaneous mycosis caused by the dimorphic fungus Sporothrix schenckii, which exhibits a temperature-dependent dimorphic switch. At 25°C, it grows in a mycelial phase, while at 37°C, it forms unicellular yeast cells. The formation of yeast cells was thought to be a requisite for the pathogenicity of S. schenckii. To identify fragments that might be related to morphogenesis, whole-cell proteins from the mold and early yeast stages of S. schenckii were analyzed using 2DE. Among thousands of protein molecules displayed, more than 300 showed a differential expression between the two phases. In particular, 24 yeast-specific proteins were identified using MALDI-TOF/MS. One of the most interesting proteins was a hybrid histidine kinase, DRK1, a global regulator of dimorphism and virulence in Blastomyces dermatitidis and Histoplasma capsulatum that was abundant in the yeast phase. Our study introduced a new approach to study dimorphism in S. schenckii, and the data may help us better understand the molecular mechanisms of phase transition.
