2-(benzylideneamino)phenol: a promising hydroxyaldimine with potent activity against dermatophytoses.
Article in Mycopathologia, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Infections caused by dermatophytes, mainly Trichophyton rubrum,are often vulnerable to relapses upon cessation of antifungal therapy, reinforcing the need of new antifungals. Aldimines have potential biological activities, but there are few reports on their antifungal profile. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antifungal activity of 2-(benzylideneamino)phenol (3A3) and 4-(benzylideneamino)phenol (3A4) against dermatophytes. We determined the minimum inhibitory concentration, minimum fungicidal concentration, time-kill curves and fractional inhibitory concentration of the combination of 3A3, 3A4 and itraconazole against a set of isolates of T. rubrum and T. interdigitale. 3A3 was tested in a murine model of dermatophytoses caused by T. rubrum, and the effect on phagocytosis was assessed. The MIC values ranged from 8 to 32 μg/mL for 3A3 and from 64 to 256 μg/mL for 3A4. The interaction between 3A3 and 3A4 with itraconazole proved to be synergistic and indifferent, respectively. 3A3 was as efficient as itraconazole in reducing the fungal burden on the skin of mice, being this effect associated with the influx of neutrophil and macrophage. Also, 3A3 was able to increase the internalization of conidia by macrophages. Altogether, our data encourage future clinical studies with 3A3 to treat dermatophytoses.
