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

Fusarium petroliphilum is a recently described species within the Fusarium solani species complex. Some strains of Fusarium species are capable of forming yeast-like structures in tissue as well as in culture through a process known as "adventitious sporulation." Here, we describe the formation of these yeast-like reproductive structures in infected nail tissue obtained from a case of onychomycosis. These structures were also observed in culture grown on RPMI 1640 agar supplemented with 2% glucose. The isolate was resistant to azoles and echinocandins. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing adventitious sporulation in F. petroliphilum and its etiologic role in onychomycosis.
