An overview of lectin-glycan interactions: a key event in initiating fungal infection and pathogenesis.
Review in Archives of microbiology, 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
Infections due to microfungi are of serious concern in many parts of the world. Many species of microfungi are known to cause systemic infection in human beings. Pathogenic microorganisms employ various molecular strategies for colonizing a susceptible host. Recent studies have shown the importance of lectins from microfungi that enable the pathogen to interact with the host, resulting in host immune response. These fungal lectins or adhesins show specific affinities to the glycans present on the membrane proteins or lipids. Binding of the pathogen to the receptors, probably toll-like receptors or dectins, present on the host cell surface triggers/initiates a cascade of signalling pathways, leading to the activation of transcription factors such as NF-κB resulting in the release of proinflammatory cytokines which in turn recruit cells of the immune system to the site of microbial insult to combat the pathogen or resulting in pathogenesis. In this review, we will focus on the interaction between fungal lectins and the host glycans initiating pathogenesis and how the host immune system tries to suppress the pathogenesis.
