Anti-Candida Potential of Peptides from Immature and Ripe Fruits of Capsicum chinense Jacq.
Article in Probiotics and antimicrobial proteins, 2023. 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
The objective of this work was to purify and evaluate the antifungal potential of peptides present in immature and ripe fruits of Capsicum chinense Jacq. (accession UENF 1706) on the medical importance yeasts. Initially the proteins of these seedless fruits were extracted, precipitated with ammonium sulfate at 70% saturation, followed by heating at 80 °C. Subsequently, the peptide-rich extract was fractionated by DEAE-Sepharose anion exchange. The whole process was monitored by tricine-SDS-PAGE. The results revealed that the fraction retained in anion exchange column, called D2, of immature and ripe fruits significantly inhibit the growth of Candida albicans and C. tropicalis yeasts. Due to the higher yield, the D2 fraction of immature fruits was selected for further purification by reverse phase chromatography on HPLC, where sixteen different fractions (H1-H16) were obtained and these were subjected to antifungal assay at 50 µg mL
