Membrane Permeabilization of Pathogenic Yeast in Alternating Sub-microsecond Electromagnetic Fields in Combination with Conventional Electroporation.
Article in The Journal of membrane biology, 2018. 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
Recently, a novel contactless treatment method based on high-power pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) was proposed, which results in cell membrane permeabilization effects similar to electroporation. In this work, a new PEMF generator based on multi-stage Marx circuit topology, which is capable of delivering 3.3 T, 0.19 kV/cm sub-microsecond pulses was used to permeabilize pathogenic yeast Candida albicans separately and in combination with conventional square wave electroporation (8-17 kV/cm, 100 μs). Bursts of 10, 25, and 50 PEMF pulses were used. The yeast permeabilization rate was evaluated using flow cytometric analysis and propidium iodide (PI) assay. A statistically significant (P < 0.05) combinatorial effect of electroporation and PEMF treatment was detected. Also the PEMF treatment (3.3 T, 50 pulses) resulted in up to 21% loss of yeast viability, and a dose-dependent additive effect with pulsed electric field was observed. As expected, increase of the dB/dt and subsequently the induced electric field amplitude resulted in a detectable effect solely by PEMF, which was not achievable before for yeasts in vitro.
