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

Baicalein (BE) is a promising antifungal small-molecule compound with an extended antifungal spectrum, good synergy with fluconazole, and low toxicity, but its target protein and antifungal mechanism remain elusive. In this study, we found that BE can function against Candida albicans by disrupting glycolysis through targeting Eno1 and inhibiting its function. Eno1 acts as a key therapeutic target of the drug, as BE had no antifungal activity against the
