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

Auxarthrones A-E (1-5), five new phenalenones, and two new naturally occurring cyclic tetrapeptides, auxarthrides A (7) and B (8), were obtained from three different solvent extracts of cultures of the coprophilous fungus Auxarthron pseudauxarthron. Auxarthrones C (3) and E (5) possess an unusual 7a,8-dihydrocyclopenta[a]phenalene-7,9-dione ring system that has not been previously observed in natural products. Formation of 1-5 was found to be dependent on the solvent used for culture extraction. The structures of these new compounds were elucidated primarily by analysis of NMR and MS data. Auxarthrone A (1) was obtained as a mixture of chromatographically inseparable racemic diastereomers (1a and 1b) that cocrystallized, enabling confirmation of their structures by X-ray crystallography. The absolute configurations of 7 and 8 were assigned by analysis of their acid hydrolysates using Marfey's method. Compound 1 displayed moderate antifungal activity against Cryptococcus neoformans and Candida albicans, but did not affect human cancer cell lines.
